Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Ravenstruther
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair

Ravenstruther questions
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A crack that leaks water
