Do you need toilet chip repair in Cranage?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Toilet chip repair in Cranage, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.
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 the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Repair or replace in Cranage?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cranage
If you manage property in Cranage, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Cranage: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you cover Cranage?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Cranage and the rest of Cheshire East. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cheshire East.
