About our toilet chip repair in Chapelton
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, across cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals.
In a village like Chapelton, older cottages sometimes have period basins and toilets, and those are worth keeping. We work around original marks where possible.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Chapelton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Chapelton. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
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. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we are called out for in Chapelton

- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
In the older streets of Chapelton, around landmarks like Saint Ternan's Church, period sanitaryware is worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can.

Repairing versus replacing in Chapelton
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. In an older home in a village like Chapelton, replacing a toilet can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Normally one visit, start to finish
