About our toilet chip repair in Shotton
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re often asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, on toilet pans, porcelain and pedestals.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Shotton as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Shotton
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most clients in Shotton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two hours, tidy-up included.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CH5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Shotton?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Common reasons people in Shotton contact us are:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
Before you book anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Your questions about toilet chip repair in Shotton
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Repair or replace in Shotton?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
