About our toilet chip repair in Bowers
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 will tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, in cisterns & lids, vitreous china and porcelain.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bowers and across Staffordshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Bowers?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
