How we handle toilet chip repair in Rachub
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
