Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Toilet chip repair in Swanage without replacing anything
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 tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, across toilet pans, porcelain and vitreous china.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Swanage and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Swanage
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Dorset.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover the entire of Dorset?
We work UK-wide, so Swanage is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. 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.

- Same prices wherever you are
- One visit for most repairs
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
