What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Millthorpe
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Millthorpe
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Questions from Millthorpe
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover Millthorpe?
We do. Technicians travel to Millthorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Work done at your home or business
- A fixed quote before booking
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
