How we handle toilet chip repair in Puddle Dock
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We regularly repair porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

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 keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Puddle Dock
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Puddle Dock as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Puddle Dock. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Puddle Dock, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Puddle Dock questions
Do you work in Puddle Dock?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Puddle Dock from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
