How we handle toilet chip repair in Kettle Corner

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, across cisterns & lids, pedestals and toilet pans.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Kettle Corner

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Kettle Corner?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ME15 postcode.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Porcelain
  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Toilet pans

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow an hour or two from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Get a quote

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
