Toilet Chip Repair in Borestone
We travel to Borestone for chip and break repairs to toilets, cisterns and other ceramics. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
Toilet chip repair in Borestone without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, pedestals and vitreous china, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Borestone
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Borestone use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t 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 before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Borestone. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Why repair rather than replace?
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 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 price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
