Toilet chip repair in Melling Mount, done in place
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our technicians work on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Melling Mount
Replacing a 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- A fixed quote before you book
- No extra charge for your area
- Nothing taken out or refitted
See our full price list.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we are called out for in Melling Mount
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
- If travel is included in the price
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Melling Mount: your questions answered
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do you cover the whole of Sefton?
All of Sefton, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
