Toilet chip repair in Colston without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We are often asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, in porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Colston: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Common problems we fix in Colston

- Marks on the outside of the pan

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Colston customers choose us
- One visit for most repairs
- A fixed quote before you book
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour mixed on the day to match
Read our prices page.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What affects the price in Colston
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your G64 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
