Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around St Helens, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we handle toilet chip repair in St Helens
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Do you need toilet chip repair in St Helens?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long it needs to cure
- How changes to the job are handled
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for St Helens. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
