Toilet Chip Repair in Upgate
Problem with your toilet in Upgate? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
How we handle toilet chip repair in Upgate
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched 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 tell you if that is what we find. Our technicians work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Upgate: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Upgate. What changes the price is:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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 you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
Signs you need toilet chip repair in Upgate
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
