Toilet chip repair at your home in Stapleton
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We work on cisterns & lids, pedestals and toilet pans, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Stapleton
Do you cover the whole of Somerset?
Across the UK, so Stapleton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you come to Stapleton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Stapleton and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Are there extra charges for Stapleton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Stapleton
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stapleton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
If you are in Stapleton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairing versus replacing in Stapleton
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. 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.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
