Toilet chip repair in Dudleston Heath, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Dudleston Heath as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Dudleston Heath questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Dudleston Heath and the rest of Shropshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
