Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

About our toilet chip repair in Kingsknowe
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Kingsknowe, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Kingsknowe
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- 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 before booking.
Surfaces we repair

What affects the price in Kingsknowe
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
