About our toilet chip repair in Lickey End
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Lickey End
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you cover the entire of Worcestershire?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you cover Lickey End?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lickey End for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lickey End as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
