Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlord and trade work in Lanehead
If you manage property in Lanehead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
