Toilet chip repair at your home in Oxcroft Estate

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our technicians work on porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Oxcroft Estate: your questions answered

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you work in Oxcroft Estate?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Oxcroft Estate from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oxcroft Estate as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Signs you need toilet chip repair in Oxcroft Estate

  • Chips on the pan or rim

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes an hour or two, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Should you replace it?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Oxcroft Estate. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire toilet

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
