Related advice
Toilet chip repair in Gembling, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Cisterns & lids

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

Gembling: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
