Questions from The Quays
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Toilet chip repair in The Quays without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can generally put it right, on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in The Quays as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for The Quays. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in The Quays
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

- Colour-matched on site

What we are called out for in The Quays
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in The Quays
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Quays use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
