Toilet chip repair at your home in Pipe Aston
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. Our technicians work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pipe Aston and across Shropshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- 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
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Pipe Aston
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
