About our toilet chip repair in Firth
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 will tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and porcelain.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

- It’s sanded flush.

Advice
What we are called out for in Firth
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price covers travel
Landlord and trade work in Firth
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
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.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
