Toilet chip repair at your home in Great Green
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We work on porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans, and common reasons people get in touch are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Great Green. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Great Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Great Green, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace in Great Green?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Great Green questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you come to Great Green?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Great Green and the rest of Suffolk. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Great Green?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
