What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Caiystane. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Caiystane, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
About our toilet chip repair in Caiystane
A crack that leaks can’t 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 do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in Caiystane
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take an hour or two, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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.
