Toilet chip repair in Pleck Green without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Questions from Pleck Green
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you come to Pleck Green?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Pleck Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you cover the whole of Dorset?
We cover the whole UK, including Pleck Green and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What we’re called out for in Pleck Green
Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
