Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Butterwick
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are often asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, in vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Butterwick and across Lincolnshire. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two hours.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
