How we handle toilet chip repair in Ilsington
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

For anyone letting property in or around Ilsington, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Common problems we fix in Ilsington

- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
If you are in Ilsington and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Ilsington
- Pedestals

Ilsington questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
