Toilet chip repair in Westbourne, done in place
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 can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We regularly repair porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Westbourne and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Common questions in Westbourne
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Westbourne and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your W2 postcode.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What affects the price in Westbourne
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your W2 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
