About our toilet chip repair in Childer Thornton
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We’re frequently asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, on vitreous china, porcelain and pedestals.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Childer Thornton. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Childer Thornton questions
Do you come to Childer Thornton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Childer Thornton and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
