Toilet chip repair at your home in Lady Bay
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Lady Bay
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work in Lady Bay?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lady Bay for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Lady Bay
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Lady Bay

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
