Repair or replace: which is better?

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Stanton
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes an hour or two, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stanton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Stanton questions
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are there extra charges for Stanton?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure 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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
