Toilet chip repair across Thurcaston and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95

How we handle toilet chip repair in Thurcaston
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, on toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thurcaston and across Leicester. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Thurcaston
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Thurcaston questions
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you come to Thurcaston?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Thurcaston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Thurcaston?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
