DIY kit or professional repair?
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Toilet chip repair in Ridgewell, done in place
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can normally put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Ridgewell
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you come to Ridgewell?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Ridgewell and the rest of Essex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Ridgewell
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ridgewell. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One-year guarantee on every repair

- Same prices wherever you are

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes an hour or two for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
