Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Spital
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Spital
- Pedestals

What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

We do. We send a technician to Spital for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Are there extra charges for Spital?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Other services in Spital
