Toilet chip repair in Ratcliffe on Soar 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 cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We work on porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ratcliffe on Soar. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Toilet pans
  • Vitreous china

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 keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
