Toilet chip repair at your home in South Church
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, on pedestals, porcelain and vitreous china alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two hours, tidy-up included.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in South Church
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means 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. 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. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us

- Work done at your home or business
