Landlords, agents and businesses in Ridge
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ridge as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Toilet chip repair in Ridge without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We’re often asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, on vitreous china, pedestals and porcelain.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the 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 us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What affects the price in Ridge
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
