Toilet chip repair at your home in Shaftesbury
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What else we do in Shaftesbury
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Shaftesbury
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
For anyone letting property in or around Shaftesbury, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One-year guarantee on every repair
