Toilet chip repair across Tameside: what to expect
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two hours.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
What it costs in Tameside
Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a price
For a price in Tameside, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Near you in Ashton-under-Lyne
Our customers here include homes close to Stamford Park, Church of St James and Ashton Sixth Form College. Also close by are Canon Johnson CofE Primary School (under half a mile west) and Prince of Orange pub (under half a mile south-west). Ashton-under-Lyne has its own railway station: Ashton-Under-Lyne station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Ashton Arcades (under half a mile south) and Ashton St. Michael's (0.6 miles east). Not far away are Eastwood Nature Reserve and Boating lake.
Repairing versus replacing
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Signs you need toilet chip repair
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
For anyone letting property in or around Tameside, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole toilet
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
FAQs for Tameside

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
