Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Shiplake Cross
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on porcelain, toilet pans and vitreous china, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Shiplake Cross
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you cover the entire of Oxfordshire?
The whole UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- 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’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
