How we handle toilet chip repair in Whiteleas
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. If you are dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Whiteleas as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
A new 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Work done at your home or business
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Generally one visit, start to finish

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

- Pedestals

Whiteleas: your questions answered
Do you work in Whiteleas?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Whiteleas for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
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.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What affects the price in Whiteleas
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
