Toilet chip repair in Eddington, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We work on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Eddington, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take an hour or two. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
When to call us in Eddington
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan

Eddington questions
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
