Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means 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. Replacement in Summerseat means trades, travel and waste removal, while toilet chip repair is one trip.
Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Toilet chip repair in Summerseat, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, across toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
In a village like Summerseat, older cottages sometimes have period basins and toilets, and those are worth keeping. We repair around makers’ marks where we can.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
