Toilet chip repair in Bowers Gifford, 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 will say so if we find one. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, we can typically put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bowers Gifford and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Bowers Gifford questions
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we are called out for in Bowers Gifford
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Typically one visit, start to finish
