Toilet chip repair in Alexandria without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What else we do in Alexandria
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

FAQs for Alexandria
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Are there extra charges for Alexandria?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
