Toilet chip repair in Mugginton without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not 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. We regularly repair pedestals, vitreous china and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

FAQs for Mugginton
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
