How we handle toilet chip repair in Stone Cross
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, on porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stone Cross
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole toilet
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
