About our toilet chip repair in Bretby
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Bretby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Bretby
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Bretby
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take an hour or two. 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.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Common problems we fix in Bretby
Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price covers travel
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
