Toilet chip repair in Lambourn Woodlands, done in place
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll 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 are often asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, on toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Lambourn Woodlands. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RG17 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repairing versus replacing in Lambourn Woodlands
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
