Trusted toilet chip repair in Sully and Lavernock

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Sully and Lavernock

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sully and Lavernock as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 will get a fixed figure.

  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Sully and Lavernock. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
