About our toilet chip repair in Crosswater

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right, on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Crosswater. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back

For a price in Crosswater, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 usually cheaper.

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
