Toilet chip repair in Wick without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two hours.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Landlord and trade work in Wick
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.
For anyone letting property in or around Wick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Wick questions
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Wick?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Wick and the rest of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

When to call us in Wick
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
