About our toilet chip repair in Old Tebay
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Old Tebay as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Old Tebay
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes one to two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Most customers in Old Tebay get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Old Tebay questions
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
