Toilet chip repair at your home in Bretton
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We’re often asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Bretton
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim

Repairing versus replacing in Bretton
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
