Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
If you are in Victoria Park and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Toilet chip repair in Victoria Park without replacing anything
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. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can help.
Peace of mind is built in: 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.

What we do, step by step

- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.

Common questions in Victoria Park
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Victoria Park?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Victoria Park
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Victoria Park use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
