Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CA16 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
