About our toilet chip repair in St John
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can typically put it right, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in St John
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

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 leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
What affects the price in St John
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
