How we handle toilet chip repair in Allercombe
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. 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 needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Allercombe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Allercombe. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole toilet
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Allercombe: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Allercombe?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically 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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
