How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Toilet chip repair in Blairmore, 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 can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can normally put it right, on porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Blairmore

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
