Repairing versus replacing in Oxclose
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

About our toilet chip repair in Oxclose
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 say so if we find one. We’re often asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, in cisterns & lids, pedestals and toilet pans.
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. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Advice
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
