Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Tallentire
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Our technicians work on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Tallentire
What affects the price in Tallentire
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Tallentire, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
See our prices page.
What we can’t put right
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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry

Questions from Tallentire
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cumbria.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
