DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
About our toilet chip repair in Lowca
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our repair technicians work on vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lowca
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise 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.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Lowca. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Common questions in Lowca
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
