DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Toilet chip repair in Glaston, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll 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. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Questions from Glaston
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you cover Glaston?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Glaston and the rest of Rutland. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the whole of Rutland?
We work UK-wide, so Glaston is covered. Prices do not change with location.
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.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When to call us in Glaston
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
Repairing versus replacing in Glaston
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Glaston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
