Toilet chip repair at your home in Aston Flamville
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’ll tell you if that is what we find. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, in toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

When to call us in Aston Flamville
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Aftercare advice
- Who will actually do the work
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

- What kind of damage it is
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Aston Flamville questions
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

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. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Aston Flamville. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
