Toilet chip repair at your home in Stratford
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, we can help.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Stratford. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage

- Pieces knocked off during fitting
What your quote should include

Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
