Toilet chip repair at your home in Denton
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Denton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Most customers in Denton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
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 often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from Denton
Do you come to Denton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Denton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Denton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs 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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
