About our toilet chip repair in Sebastopol

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, across toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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.

Repair or replace in Sebastopol?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our pricing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What affects the price in Sebastopol

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most clients in Sebastopol get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
