Toilet chip repair at your home in Sandford St Martin
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Sandford St Martin
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Common problems we fix in Sandford St Martin
Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.
