Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Staplehurst, Kent
Toilet chip repair in and around Staplehurst: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Staplehurst
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right

- 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.
