Advice
How we handle toilet chip repair in Brockley Whins
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, 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. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Brockley Whins, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Brockley Whins. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole toilet
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
