Toilet chip repair at your home in Canewdon
A crack that leaks cannot 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 the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why Canewdon clients choose us
- No extra charge for your area
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Canewdon. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, 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.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
