Toilet chip repair at your home in Horsey
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Toilet pans

Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. 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. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Advice
Your questions about toilet chip repair in Horsey
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Landlord and trade work in Horsey
