Toilet chip repair in Ottery St Mary without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, in vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Everything repaired in place
- No extra charge for your area
