Repairing versus replacing in Thurmaston
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

About our toilet chip repair in Thurmaston
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thurmaston and across Leicester. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Thurmaston
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leicester and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
