Toilet chip repair in Basford, done in place
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, across vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Basford as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Basford. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairing versus replacing in Basford
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
