Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Starston
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair vitreous china, porcelain and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Starston
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common questions in Starston
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Repair or replace in Starston?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
