Toilet chip repair in Emstrey, 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’s what we find. We regularly repair toilet pans, porcelain and vitreous china, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

FAQs for Emstrey
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Shropshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What else we do in Emstrey
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire toilet
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What we’re called out for in Emstrey

The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
What to look for in a quote

- How your room will be protected
- How to care for the finish
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
