What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Repairing versus replacing in West Heath
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When to call us in West Heath
Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Look out for any of the following:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Aftercare advice
