About our toilet chip repair in Thornham Fold
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 the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Thornham Fold
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What affects the price in Thornham Fold
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Thornham Fold. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Thornham Fold and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
