- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid

Toilet chip repair in Homer without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Homer
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the whole toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Homer
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Homer included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take an hour or two, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
