About our toilet chip repair in Canonbie
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Our technicians work on pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Canonbie and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Canonbie
Do you cover Canonbie?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Canonbie from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used 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 it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
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.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
