Repair or replace in Tibshelf?
A new 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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- One price list for the entire UK
- Fixed prices from your photos

Toilet chip repair at your home in Tibshelf
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. If you are dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain alike.
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.

Common questions in Tibshelf
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
