About our toilet chip repair in Bow

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Bow

Replacing a 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the entire UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Bow questions

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bow. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • Details of any past repairs

Most customers in Bow get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

  • Vitreous china
