Toilet chip repair in Boscoppa, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Boscoppa
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Questions from Boscoppa
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Boscoppa?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you work in Boscoppa?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Boscoppa. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire toilet
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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
