How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Shalden
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Shalden: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What we are called out for in Shalden
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
Repairing versus replacing in Shalden
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
