About our toilet chip repair in Bishops Lydeard
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Bishops Lydeard: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bishops Lydeard
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids

Signs you need toilet chip repair in Bishops Lydeard
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected
- Aftercare advice
- When it can be used again
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
