DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Toilet chip repair in Oakham, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, in pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
What we’re called out for in Oakham
Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who will actually do the work
Should you replace it?
A new 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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour-matched on site
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Questions from Oakham
Do you work in Oakham?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Oakham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oakham use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Oakham, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
