Toilet chip repair in Shaw Lands without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, in cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

FAQs for Shaw Lands
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Are there extra charges for Shaw Lands?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you come to Shaw Lands?
We do. Technicians travel to Shaw Lands from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we’re called out for in Shaw Lands

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
