Toilet chip repair in Shawbost without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace in Shawbost?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shawbost. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What affects the price in Shawbost
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Shawbost: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Shawbost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Shawbost from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
