Toilet chip repair in Iwerne Minster without replacing anything
A crack that leaks can’t 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 pedestals, vitreous china and porcelain, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Iwerne Minster
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Iwerne Minster
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What areas do you cover?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
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.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Iwerne Minster. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes one to two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
