Toilet chip repair at your home in Ringmer
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BN8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Ringmer: your questions answered
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Ringmer. Prices don’t change with location.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ringmer
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ringmer as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Ringmer, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
