Toilet chip repair at your home in Birdwell
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 you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, in cisterns & lids, porcelain and toilet pans.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Same prices wherever you are
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
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.

Birdwell questions

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

We do. We send a technician to Birdwell for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
