Toilet chip repair in Wellington, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, in pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Wellington?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid

Wellington questions
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
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.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Wellington is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wellington
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wellington as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
