How we handle toilet chip repair in Broughton Astley
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Common questions in Broughton Astley
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you come to Broughton Astley?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Broughton Astley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole toilet
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
