Toilet chip repair at your home in Cow Roast
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Cow Roast and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Cow Roast
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not 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.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What affects the price in Cow Roast
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What else we do in Cow Roast
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
