Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Mapperley, Nottingham
Chip and break repairs to toilets, cisterns and other ceramics in Mapperley, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95

Toilet chip repair in Mapperley without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in Mapperley
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Nottingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Mapperley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes an hour or two, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us

When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Mapperley

- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Questions to ask before booking
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Mapperley. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Mapperley: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Nottingham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
