Toilet chip repair in Hessett without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP30 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
