Toilet chip repair in Acton Gate without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our technicians work on porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.
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. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus

Acton Gate: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- No extra charge for your area
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
