Questions from Slip End
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you come to Slip End?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Slip End and the rest of Luton. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Slip End. Prices do not change with location.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Toilet chip repair in Slip End without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take an hour or two, including clearing up.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.

- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
