Toilet chip repair at your home in Shalcombe
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you are in Shalcombe and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
