Toilet chip repair in Lurgan without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, across vitreous china, cisterns & lids and pedestals.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Craigavon. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Lurgan. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Lurgan, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Landlord and trade work in Lurgan
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lurgan as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Craigavon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we are called out for in Lurgan
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who will actually do the work

Lurgan questions
Do you work in Lurgan?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lurgan and the rest of Craigavon. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
