Related advice
Toilet chip repair in Colston Bassett, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on vitreous china, pedestals and toilet pans, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour-matched on site

Do you need toilet chip repair in Colston Bassett?

Look out for any of the following:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items

- Pieces knocked off during fitting

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 typically cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Colston Bassett. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from pictures so you don’t 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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
