How we handle toilet chip repair in Stanford on Soar
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, across pedestals, vitreous china and porcelain.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Stanford on Soar
Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

When to call us in Stanford on Soar
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Common reasons people in Stanford on Soar contact us are:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
