Toilet chip repair in and around Arbury: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Arbury
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Arbury and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Arbury: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Arbury and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
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?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Arbury. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
