Toilet chip repair in Illidge Green without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Advice
What affects the price in Illidge Green
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
