Local toilet chip repair for The Herberts: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Toilet chip repair at your home in The Herberts
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can generally put it right, on vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in The Herberts?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in The Herberts
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you work in The Herberts?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to The Herberts and the rest of the Vale of Glamorgan. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
