Toilet chip repair in Littlethorpe, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Littlethorpe use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
