About our toilet chip repair in Coddenham Green
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 will say so if we find one. We regularly repair vitreous china, porcelain and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire toilet
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coddenham Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Coddenham Green: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you come to Coddenham Green?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Coddenham Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
