Toilet chip repair at your home in Chorlton-by-Backford
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, on pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
In and around Chorlton-by-Backford, older homes can have toilets that are hard to replace like for like. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Chorlton-by-Backford and across Cheshire West and Chester. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. In an older home in a village like Chorlton-by-Backford, replacing a toilet can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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 toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
