About our toilet chip repair in Sandonbank
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Sandonbank and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Sandonbank
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
