Toilet chip repair at your home in Torkington
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 cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Torkington as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What affects the price in Torkington
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Torkington. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Torkington: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Torkington and the rest of Stockport. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Are there extra charges for Torkington?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Advice
Towns and villages near Torkington
What else we do in Torkington
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Torkington customers choose us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Normally one visit, start to finish
