Toilet chip repair in Guide Bridge without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair toilet pans, porcelain and vitreous china, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Questions from Guide Bridge
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Pedestals

What affects the price in Guide Bridge
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Guide Bridge. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Guide Bridge. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to an hour or two, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
