Toilet chip repair in Scholes, done in place
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. Our technicians work on vitreous china, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire toilet
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Scholes, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repairing versus replacing in Scholes
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Scholes. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, 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. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

FAQs for Scholes
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
