Toilet chip repair at your home in Gateside
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Gateside and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: 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. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gateside
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gateside as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour-matched on site

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Gateside. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Gateside: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
