Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.

Other services in Uphill
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BS23 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Uphill?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Uphill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
