For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Toilet chip repair in Wimbotsham without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Wimbotsham. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
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.

Wimbotsham: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover Wimbotsham?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Wimbotsham. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
