What we’re called out for in Ashton
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid

How we handle toilet chip repair in Ashton
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, across pedestals, porcelain and vitreous china.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ashton as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

When we’d advise against a repair
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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repair or replace in Ashton?
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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Ashton. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the whole toilet
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take an hour or two. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Your questions about toilet chip repair in Ashton
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
