How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. 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.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Neville's Cross
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, on porcelain, toilet pans and vitreous china alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t 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)

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
