About our toilet chip repair in Wiveton
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We are frequently asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, in cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs 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, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Wiveton questions
Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?
Across the UK, so Wiveton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t 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 will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
