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 clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Sutton-on-the-Forest. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repairing versus replacing in Sutton-on-the-Forest
A new toilet means 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. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
