Toilet chip repair in Buckland Hollow without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We regularly repair vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Common questions in Buckland Hollow
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you work in Buckland Hollow?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Buckland Hollow from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
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 you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
