Toilet chip repair in Sherborne St John, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, on pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we’re called out for in Sherborne St John
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How changes to the job are handled
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- 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’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes an hour or two for most jobs. The room is left 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.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Sherborne St John
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hampshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repair or replace in Sherborne St John?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
