Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- The material
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
Common questions in Whitchurch
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
