For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Starkholmes
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, we can normally put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Starkholmes. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does someone need to be in?

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Starkholmes. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Starkholmes, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
