Toilet chip repair in Drakeholes without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, vitreous china and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Drakeholes. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Drakeholes

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
