Toilet chip repair in Black Bourton, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it 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 will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, on porcelain, vitreous china and toilet pans.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Black Bourton
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How quickly can you book me in?

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What else we do in Black Bourton
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Black Bourton. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
When to call us in Black Bourton
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What preparation is included
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 before booking.
Materials we work on in Black Bourton
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
