How we handle toilet chip repair in Ely
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Ely
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ely. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Common questions in Ely
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover Ely?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ely from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet means 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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour-matched on site
