Toilet chip repair in Tisman's Common without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, on porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals.
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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tisman's Common. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
