Toilet chip repair in Whitecross, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals alike.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common problems we fix in Whitecross

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Damage from dropped items

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Whitecross, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Whitecross. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Whitecross. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Whitecross questions

Are there extra charges for Whitecross?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price
