Book toilet chip repair in St Pancras

What affects the price in St Pancras

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back

If you are in St Pancras and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Toilet chip repair in St Pancras without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in St Pancras and across Greater London. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in St Pancras

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

  • Vitreous china
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Toilet pans
  • Pedestals
  • Porcelain

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take an hour or two, including clearing up.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

FAQs for St Pancras

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

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.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around St Pancras, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
