About our toilet chip repair in West Howe
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in West Howe
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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

West Howe and nearby
West Howe is about 2 miles north-east of Poole, in Bournemouth. From the centre of West Howe to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: a fixed price, a tidy visit and a guarantee. West Howe is one of 20 towns and villages in Bournemouth where we work.
All of BH11, BH12 and BH10 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets. We regularly work on streets such as Hall Road, Duck Lane and Gort Road and the roads around them. Neighbouring places we cover include Knighton Heath (1 mile west), Bearwood (1 mile north-west), Alder Hills (1 mile south), Kinson (1 mile north-east) and Rossmore (1 mile south). Larger places within reach include Bournemouth (3 miles south-east), Springbourne (4 miles south-east), Pokesdown (5 miles east), Boscombe (4 miles south-east), West Cliff (3 miles south-east) and Westbourne (3 miles south).
Near you in West Howe
We visit homes around Heathlands Primary Academy, St Philip and LeAF Studio, among other places. Nearby too are Fernheath Playing Fields (less than half a mile east) and Oakmead College of Technology (less than half a mile north). For rail, the closest station is Branksome station, about 2.1 miles south. Other landmarks nearby include The Arcade (3.2 miles south-east) and Big Four Railway Museum & Model Centre (3.1 miles south-east).
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, 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. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common questions in West Howe
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Bournemouth.
Do you work in West Howe?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to West Howe and the rest of Bournemouth. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Common problems we fix in West Howe

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
