Toilet chip repair in Abshot without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, in cisterns & lids, toilet pans and porcelain.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Abshot

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you cover Abshot?

We do. Technicians travel to Abshot from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 usually cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes an hour or two. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
