How we handle toilet chip repair in Stratton-on-the-Fosse
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We’re frequently asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, across vitreous china, pedestals and toilet pans.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Stratton-on-the-Fosse and across Somerset. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Stratton-on-the-Fosse. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BA3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Stratton-on-the-Fosse
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 generally cheaper.
What we are called out for in Stratton-on-the-Fosse
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
People normally call us when they notice something like this:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Before you book anyone

- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes an hour or two. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Pedestals

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
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.
Questions from Stratton-on-the-Fosse
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Stratton-on-the-Fosse?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BA3 postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
