Toilet chip repair in Islip without replacing anything
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re frequently asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, across toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Islip and across Northamptonshire. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Islip
Do you come to Islip?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Islip for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Islip?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NN14 postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
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. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it

What else we do in Islip
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
