Toilet chip repair at your home in Jacob's Post
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 say so if we find one. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on toilet pans, porcelain and pedestals alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common problems we fix in Jacob's Post

- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Jacob's Post, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace in Jacob's Post?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole toilet
- What it’s made of, if you know
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 quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Jacob's Post questions
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing 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 will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
