Toilet chip repair in Eggleston, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We work on toilet pans, pedestals and vitreous china, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Eggleston
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we are called out for in Eggleston
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repair or replace in Eggleston?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
