Toilet chip repair at your home in May Bank
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We’re often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, on porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in May Bank and across Stoke-on-Trent. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we are called out for in May Bank
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- If travel is included in the price
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for May Bank. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
