About our toilet chip repair in Thorley Street
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, across porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Thorley Street and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match

FAQs for Thorley Street
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you come to Thorley Street?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Thorley Street and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- 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 will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
Landlords, agents and businesses in Thorley Street
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thorley Street use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job 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.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
