Toilet chip repair in Riseholme without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. 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.

Riseholme: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Riseholme. Prices do not change with location.
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Riseholme. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
