Toilet chip repair in Preston without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Preston use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Preston
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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 generally the cheaper route.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
