What toilet chip repair costs

Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash

Toilet chip repair at your home in Shawell
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Shawell and across Leicestershire. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

FAQs for Shawell
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you cover the entire of Leicestershire?
The whole UK, including all of Leicestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to an hour or two.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
