Landlords, agents and businesses in Higher Town
If you manage property in Higher Town, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
About our toilet chip repair in Higher Town
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire toilet
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Higher Town: your questions answered
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work in Higher Town?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Higher Town from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Higher Town. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
