About our toilet chip repair in Mackworth
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on toilet pans, porcelain and vitreous china, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Mackworth and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Common problems we fix in Mackworth

- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Mackworth
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Mackworth: your questions answered
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Derby. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow an hour or two. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
