- Repairs from £95

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Axtown. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- A fixed quote before booking
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
See our prices page.
Toilet chip repair in Axtown without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, across pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Axtown use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
