How to compare quotes

Toilet chip repair at your home in Tonge Corner

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china.

You are covered after we leave: 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.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes an hour or two, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Repair or replace in Tonge Corner?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No need to remove anything

Read our full price list.

What affects the price in Tonge Corner

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Porcelain
  • Vitreous china
  • Toilet pans
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Pedestals

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Tonge Corner questions

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

The entire UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you come to Tonge Corner?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Tonge Corner. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
