What affects the price in Merlin's Cross
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Merlin's Cross, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Merlin's Cross
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, we can usually put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
