Toilet chip repair at your home in Duns Tew
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can generally put it right.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Duns Tew and across Oxfordshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Duns Tew
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.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
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. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes an hour or two, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What a repair cannot fix

- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
