Toilet chip repair at your home in Rainhill
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 will tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, we can usually put it right, on vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rainhill. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise 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.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Rainhill
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rainhill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Common questions in Rainhill
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Rainhill?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
