Toilet chip repair in Stanmore without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Stanmore?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
