Toilet chip repair in Forncett St Peter, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on porcelain, vitreous china and toilet pans, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Common questions in Forncett St Peter
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
