Toilet chip repair in Shackerstone without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, 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 toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
Common questions in Shackerstone
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
