How we handle toilet chip repair in Cornworthy
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cornworthy. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole toilet
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What we are called out for in Cornworthy
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid

- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the room is protected while they work
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Cornworthy
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
