Toilet chip repair in Childrey, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Childrey
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Childrey. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
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 over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Childrey
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
