Toilet chip repair in Sewardstonebury, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Sewardstonebury and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job without visiting.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
Repair or replace in Sewardstonebury?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Sewardstonebury
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
