Toilet chip repair in Earlsdon without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it 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. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, in toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Landlord and trade work in Earlsdon
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
Common questions in Earlsdon
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Earlsdon?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What we’re called out for in Earlsdon
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to look after the finish
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Earlsdon. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Earlsdon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole toilet
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
