- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Toilet chip repair in Sots Hole without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What else we do in Sots Hole
Sots Hole: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Sots Hole and the rest of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Sots Hole. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Sots Hole. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Sots Hole
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
The things customers generally mention when they call include:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Before booking anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if they find more damage
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
