Toilet chip repair in Thornborough, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Thornborough: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you work in Thornborough?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Thornborough from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a repair better than a new one?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
