How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. 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.
Toilet chip repair in Threapwood, done in place
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Threapwood?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
