Toilet chip repair at your home in Norwich Lanes

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Norwich Lanes and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Norwich Lanes

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Norwich Lanes. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Norwich Lanes get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repairing versus replacing in Norwich Lanes

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Norwich Lanes. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Read our pricing.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Norwich Lanes

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

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Norwich Lanes, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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 we’re called out for in Norwich Lanes

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended
