Toilet chip repair in Southdown without replacing anything
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll 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 regularly repair toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Southdown
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Landlord and trade work in Southdown
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
For anyone letting property in or around Southdown, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, 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)

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Southdown. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PL10 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Most clients in Southdown get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- No extra charge for your area
