Toilet chip repair in Aglionby without replacing anything
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Aglionby questions
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
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.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
