What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Durley, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
About our toilet chip repair in Durley
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 you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Durley: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Durley?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes an hour or two in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
