Toilet chip repair at your home in Tong
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bradford. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tong. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BD4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Signs you need toilet chip repair in Tong
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
- How to look after the finish
- How the colour is matched
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tong use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means 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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Questions from Tong
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
