About our toilet chip repair in Retford
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Retford and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Retford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Retford. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs 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 pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
