Toilet chip repair at your home in Leighterton
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can generally put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlord and trade work in Leighterton
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Leighterton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Leighterton, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Common questions in Leighterton
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Do you come to Leighterton?
We do. Technicians travel to Leighterton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
