About our toilet chip repair in Stanley Common
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, across pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes one to two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stanley Common
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Common questions in Stanley Common
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire toilet
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job without visiting.

When we would advise against a repair

- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
