Toilet chip repair in Galgate without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Galgate. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Galgate questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Landlord and trade work in Galgate
For anyone letting property in or around Galgate, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take an hour or two, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
