How we handle toilet chip repair in Thurnby
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, in toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Thurnby as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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’ll say what we think before booking.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thurnby as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Thurnby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Thurnby: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What we’re called out for in Thurnby

- Chips on the pan or rim

Repair or replace in Thurnby?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes an hour or two, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
