What affects the price in Meir Heath
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs

- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Toilet chip repair in Meir Heath without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re frequently asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, across cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Meir Heath as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Meir Heath use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace in Meir Heath?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
