We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help.

Common questions in Coundon Grange
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Coundon Grange?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Coundon Grange?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
