Toilet chip repair in Bassingbourn, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, on vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Questions from Bassingbourn
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Bassingbourn?
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid

- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water

- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bassingbourn as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Bassingbourn
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
