Toilet chip repair in Marston Moretaine, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We are often asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
If you manage property in Marston Moretaine, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
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 send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Pedestals

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Marston Moretaine. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
