Repair or replace: which is better?
A new 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. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for East Tilbury. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Toilet chip repair in East Tilbury, done in place
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. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, in toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Thurrock. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Advice
Questions from East Tilbury
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including East Tilbury and the rest of Thurrock. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RM18 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
