What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
Toilet chip repair in Idridgehay without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We are often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, in cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Idridgehay and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Repair or replace in Idridgehay?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Idridgehay. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Can I fix it myself?
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 frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Idridgehay questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do you work in Idridgehay?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Idridgehay from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
