Toilet chip repair in Stairfoot without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Our repair technicians work on pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stairfoot as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
FAQs for Stairfoot
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Stairfoot
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stairfoot use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
