Toilet chip repair in Thriplow, done in place
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. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Thriplow
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SG8 postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thriplow as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

- Doing more than one item at once

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
