DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Toilet chip repair in Washingborough, done in place
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 say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can usually put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take an hour or two. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
