- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.

Related advice
Toilet chip repair in Old Ingarsby without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- A fixed quote before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Old Ingarsby. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
