About our toilet chip repair in Throston
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, in pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Throston
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Throston?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Throston. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
For anyone letting property in or around Throston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Repair or replace in Throston?
