Repairing versus replacing in Hugh Town
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Toilet chip repair in Hugh Town, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right, on toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Hugh Town

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
