Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Greenside, Cumbria
Our repair technicians come to Greenside for chip and break repairs to toilets, cisterns and other ceramics. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.

- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
How we handle toilet chip repair in Greenside
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We work on toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What affects the price in Greenside
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Questions from Greenside
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
Across the UK, so Greenside is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
