Toilet chip repair at your home in Holywood
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched 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’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can help, on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans alike.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in Holywood
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Holywood questions
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What affects the price in Holywood
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Holywood. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DG2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
Repair or replace in Holywood?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
