Toilet chip repair at your home in Cottenham
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cottenham. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole toilet
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes one to two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
