How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for New Town. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in New Town, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Toilet chip repair at your home in New Town

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 tell you if that is what we find. Our technicians work on porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.

Every job is backed for twelve months in New Town and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes one to two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Vitreous china
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Toilet pans
  • Pedestals
  • Porcelain
