FAQs for Sandford
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work in Sandford?
We do. Technicians travel to Sandford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Sandford
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandford
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means 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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
