About our toilet chip repair in Fatfield
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. We work on porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Fatfield?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fatfield as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A crack that leaks water

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
