Toilet chip repair in and around Bowdon: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95

Toilet chip repair at your home in Bowdon
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

FAQs for Bowdon
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Are there extra charges for Bowdon?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
What you get with us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
