Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Toilet chip repair in Firle, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, we can generally put it right, on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Firle questions
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Are there extra charges for Firle?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you cover Firle?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Firle for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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 will say what we think.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
