Toilet chip repair in Tickencote, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think.

FAQs for Tickencote
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Tickencote?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tickencote use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Tickencote
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually 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.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What affects the price in Tickencote
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
