Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. 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.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Lidsey
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can typically put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Lidsey. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job without visiting.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Lidsey
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are there extra charges for Lidsey?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover Lidsey?
We do. We send a technician to Lidsey for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
