About our toilet chip repair in Littlemoss
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’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can help, on cisterns & lids, pedestals and vitreous china alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Littlemoss
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Tameside. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Littlemoss. What changes the price is:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
We do not add 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.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes an hour or two for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
