How we handle toilet chip repair in Wincheap
A crack that leaks can’t 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. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Wincheap
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Wincheap. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise 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.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
