About our toilet chip repair in Church Brough
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, on pedestals, vitreous china and toilet pans.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Church Brough: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you’re in Church Brough and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
