About our toilet chip repair in The Rock
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. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common questions in The Rock
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
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 doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
