Toilet chip repair in Uppend without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We are often asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
Honest limits
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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Porcelain

FAQs for Uppend
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you work in Uppend?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Uppend for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
About our accreditations · Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.
