Toilet chip repair in Etton without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can typically put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Etton questions
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Etton?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What affects the price in Etton
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
