Toilet chip repair in Wheddon Cross without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TA24 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
FAQs for Wheddon Cross
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Wheddon Cross?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Wheddon Cross
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wheddon Cross as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
