Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Sherwood
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can generally put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Sherwood
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sherwood. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we are called out for in Sherwood
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
Before booking anyone
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if they find more damage
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
