Toilet chip repair in Alderford without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, across vitreous china, porcelain and pedestals.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes one to two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Questions from Alderford
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Alderford included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Repairing versus replacing in Alderford
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour-matched on site
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Same prices wherever you are

Landlord and trade work in Alderford
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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.
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.
