Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Gretton, Northamptonshire
Damaged toilet in Gretton? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gretton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Gretton
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can usually put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Gretton
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Repair or replace in Gretton?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
