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. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

About our toilet chip repair in Tiddy Brook Meadows
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 will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can generally put it right, on pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Tiddy Brook Meadows
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
