- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Radlett
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Radlett and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Radlett, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Radlett. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What we are called out for in Radlett
Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, 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
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
Questions to ask before you book
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How your room will be protected

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
