Common questions in Richmond
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Richmond.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Richmond?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DL10 postcode.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Richmond
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Everything repaired in place
- Generally one visit, start to finish

What affects the price in Richmond
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- 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.
