Advice
About our toilet chip repair in Babbington
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. 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.

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Signs you need toilet chip repair in Babbington
Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- What preparation is included
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NG16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
