How we handle toilet chip repair in Whittington
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.

FAQs for Whittington
Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Whittington and the rest of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you come to Whittington?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Whittington and the rest of Staffordshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Should you replace it?
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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
