About our toilet chip repair in Arnside
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Arnside as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Arnside
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take an hour or two. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Should you replace it?
A new 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. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Arnside. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Arnside customers choose us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Arnside
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire toilet
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Arnside
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
