Toilet chip repair in Houghton, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can usually put it right, on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Houghton: your questions answered
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Should you replace it?
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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: 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. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Houghton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
