Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, in porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids.

Common questions in Clapham Green
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Clapham Green and the rest of Bedford Borough. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- No need to remove anything
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Common problems we fix in Clapham Green
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid

What affects the price in Clapham Green
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Clapham Green, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
