Toilet chip repair at your home in Barnehurst
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’s what we find. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Barnehurst, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When to call us in Barnehurst
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Questions from Barnehurst
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Barnehurst?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DA7 postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes an hour or two in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, 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 Barnehurst. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- No need to remove anything
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Toilet pans

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
