What affects the price in Pickford Green
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most customers in Pickford Green get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Pickford Green
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, on porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
