Toilet chip repair at your home in Tadwick
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Tadwick questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you come to Tadwick?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tadwick and the rest of Bath and North East Somerset. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Tadwick?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage from dropped items

- Chips on the pan or rim

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
