Toilet chip repair at your home in Alstone
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, in porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

FAQs for Alstone
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to an hour or two, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
