Common questions in Shipdham
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you come to Shipdham?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Shipdham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I book?

Toilet chip repair in Shipdham without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area
- Everything repaired in place

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Shipdham
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole toilet
Most clients in Shipdham get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When we would advise against a repair
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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
