Toilet chip repair at your home in Stowting
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Stowting
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes an hour or two, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What affects the price in Stowting
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Stowting. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
