Toilet chip repair in Thorverton without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We regularly repair pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Thorverton
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Thorverton. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thorverton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole toilet
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Thorverton?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
