Toilet chip repair in Ide, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Ide, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
Repairing versus replacing in Ide
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: 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 pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ide, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
