Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Trowley Bottom. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Trowley Bottom
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re often asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, on porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Trowley Bottom: your questions answered
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Trowley Bottom?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your AL3 postcode.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hertfordshire.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
