10 questions to ask before you book

Toilet chip repair in Leyfields without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for one to two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

Can I fix it myself?

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 frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Repair or replace in Leyfields?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Questions from Leyfields

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, 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.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole toilet

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Leyfields, and we will reply with a fixed price.
