DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Margaretting
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and pedestals alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Margaretting for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Margaretting. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire toilet
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Most customers in Margaretting get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
