Toilet chip repair in Kildale, done in place
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can normally put it right, on vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Kildale and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Common questions in Kildale
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
