Toilet chip repair at your home in Rakewood
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair vitreous china, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes one to two hours.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you’re in Rakewood and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rakewood as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Rakewood
- Pedestals

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- No need to remove anything
- One visit for most repairs
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
