Advice
Toilet chip repair at your home in Isham
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Isham as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common problems we fix in Isham
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Common reasons people in Isham contact us include:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
Before booking anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
- If travel is included in the price
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Isham questions
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
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.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Do you come to Isham?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Isham and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What affects the price in Isham
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Isham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
Most clients in Isham get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
