About our toilet chip repair in Eastgate
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, across pedestals, porcelain and toilet pans.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes an hour or two. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Eastgate
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Eastgate, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
