About our toilet chip repair in Shillingford Abbot
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can normally put it right, on pedestals, vitreous china and toilet pans alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Shillingford Abbot. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: 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.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Porcelain
