Toilet chip repair in Nunsthorpe, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
In and around Nunsthorpe, a toilet repair is generally a short visit.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Nunsthorpe

- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole toilet
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
When to call us in Nunsthorpe
Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
In the older streets of Nunsthorpe, around landmarks like St Marks Church, it may still have original basins or a period toilet, which are worth repairing rather than replacing.
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who will actually do the work
- How soon you can use it again
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
