Toilet chip repair at your home in Snodhill
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We are often asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, in vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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 will give you a straight answer before you book.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire toilet
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Snodhill
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Herefordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Your questions about toilet chip repair in Snodhill
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover the entire of Herefordshire?
Across the UK, so Snodhill is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you cover Snodhill?
We do. We send a technician to Snodhill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
