How we handle toilet chip repair in Leigh upon Mendip
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and pedestals.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Other services in Leigh upon Mendip
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
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.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Leigh upon Mendip?

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Leigh upon Mendip
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Leigh upon Mendip.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you work in Leigh upon Mendip?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Leigh upon Mendip and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What we cannot put right
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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
