DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
About our toilet chip repair in Upton
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched 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 regularly repair pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Upton. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Advice
Common questions in Upton
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Repair or replace in Upton?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
