Tostock: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Tostock and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Tostock
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Tostock, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tostock. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP30 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
