Toilet chip repair at your home in Bury
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We are often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, across pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two hours, tidy-up included.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Bury. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
If you are in Bury and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When to call us in Bury

- Chips on the pan or rim

Repairing versus replacing in Bury
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Questions from Bury
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Bury.
Do you cover the entire of Bury?
We cover the entire UK, including Bury and the rest of Bury. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work in Bury?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Bury and the rest of Bury. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Landlord and trade work in Bury
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
