What we’re called out for in Southwaite
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
Toilet chip repair in Southwaite without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Repairing versus replacing in Southwaite
Replacing a toilet needs 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 few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Southwaite
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
