How we handle toilet chip repair in Salvington
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Salvington. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
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’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Salvington?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- 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 will give you a straight answer.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
