About our toilet chip repair in Tunstall
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in Tunstall
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tunstall as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Tunstall questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

The whole UK, including all of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire toilet
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
What you get with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One price list for the entire UK
- A fixed quote before booking
