How we handle toilet chip repair in Charnock Richard
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Charnock Richard
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charnock Richard as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
For a price in Charnock Richard, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
