Toilet chip repair in Cromwell without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Cromwell and across Nottinghamshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Cromwell
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Cromwell.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Cromwell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cromwell. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NG23 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
