About our toilet chip repair in Welham
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Welham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Welham
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Welham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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’ll say what we think before booking.

Welham: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Welham included. Travel is included in the price.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What affects the price in Welham
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Welham. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
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. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you are in Welham and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Other services in Welham
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, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
