How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Notting Dale, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Toilet chip repair in Notting Dale, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What else we do in Notting Dale
Questions from Notting Dale
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Notting Dale included. Travel is included in the price.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.
Common problems we fix in Notting Dale

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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’ll say what we think.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
