About our toilet chip repair in Brough
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Brough questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What affects the price in Brough
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Brough. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CA17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace in Brough?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
