Toilet chip repair in Rapps without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Rapps: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you come to Rapps?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Rapps for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When to call us in Rapps

- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
