About our toilet chip repair in Pinwherry
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 cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Pinwherry questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Pinwherry is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, 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 will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
If you manage property in Pinwherry, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
