Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Mildenhall. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
About our toilet chip repair in Mildenhall
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in Mildenhall
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Mildenhall
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
