How we handle toilet chip repair in Threemilestone

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, in porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common problems we fix in Threemilestone

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

10 questions to ask before you book

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Threemilestone. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you’re in Threemilestone and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
