Toilet chip repair in Shaw without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and porcelain, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole toilet
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Shaw, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Signs you need toilet chip repair in Shaw
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
- Who will actually do the work
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
