Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Adber, Dorset
Our technicians come to Adber for chip and break repairs to toilets, cisterns and other ceramics. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the cistern lid

Toilet chip repair at your home in Adber
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We work on pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
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.

Repair or replace in Adber?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why Adber clients choose us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A fixed quote before booking
- Work done at your home or business

Landlord and trade work in Adber
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Adber
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
FAQs for Adber
Do you cover Adber?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Adber and the rest of Dorset. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Adber?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes an hour or two, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
