Toilet chip repair in Steel Cross, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, in cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Steel Cross. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you’re in Steel Cross and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Steel Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When to call us in Steel Cross
Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TN6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
