About our toilet chip repair in Barnyards
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Barnyards

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Barnyards
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Barnyards
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Barnyards. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Barnyards get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Barnyards questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
