Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t 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. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Lower Street
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will 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. Our technicians work on porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Lower Street
Do you come to Lower Street?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lower Street from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NR11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
