Toilet chip repair in Chelvey, done in place
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, across vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What affects the price in Chelvey
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
FAQs for Chelvey
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you work in Chelvey?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Chelvey from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Chelvey?
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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Chelvey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
