About our toilet chip repair in Desford
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, in toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Desford?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
Most customers in Desford get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Desford as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes an hour or two. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LE9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Desford questions
Do you cover Desford?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Desford and the rest of Leicestershire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole toilet and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What a repair cannot fix
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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
