Toilet chip repair in Murcott without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, across pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Murcott
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Murcott as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures 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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common questions in Murcott
Do you work in Murcott?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Murcott. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
Across the UK, so Murcott is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What we are called out for in Murcott

- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
Questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Murcott
Replacing a toilet needs 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. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
