About our toilet chip repair in Merry Hill
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 can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Merry Hill: your questions answered
Are there extra charges for Merry Hill?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WV3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When we would advise against a repair
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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
If you are in Merry Hill and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
