How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Gunby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Toilet chip repair in Gunby, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, on vitreous china, pedestals and toilet pans.
In and around Gunby, older homes can have toilets that are hard to replace like for like. A repair keeps everything matching.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result. In a village or hamlet like Gunby, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit

When to call us in Gunby
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Marks on the outside of the pan

- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
In the older streets of Gunby, around landmarks like Church of St Nicholas, period sanitaryware is worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Older homes around Gunby may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. A repair keeps the original.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Gunby
Can you restore the original toilets in an older house in Gunby?
In most cases: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. Send pictures and we’ll advise.
Do you come out to small places like Gunby?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Gunby
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
