How we handle toilet chip repair in Aston
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you’re dealing with chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can help, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Aston. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Aston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aston use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Aston
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Questions from Aston
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Do you come to Aston?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Aston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
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.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes one to two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
