Toilet chip repair at your home in Mugswell
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

FAQs for Mugswell
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Mugswell.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
