Toilet Chip Repair in Old Tupton
Local toilet chip repair for Old Tupton: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95

Toilet chip repair in Old Tupton, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Repairing versus replacing in Old Tupton

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Old Tupton questions
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
