How we handle toilet chip repair in Swadlincote
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

FAQs for Swadlincote
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Common problems we fix in Swadlincote
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
