Toilet chip repair at your home in Lower Shelton
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can usually put it right.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Questions from Lower Shelton
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Shelton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
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.
What affects the price in Lower Shelton
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Lower Shelton. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
