Toilet chip repair in Thornsett without replacing anything
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 cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What else we do in Thornsett
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What affects the price in Thornsett
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Thornsett, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
FAQs for Thornsett
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
