How we handle toilet chip repair in Whitwick
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What else we do in Whitwick
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Whitwick?

When a repair isn’t the answer
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 pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Whitwick. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Whitwick
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
If you manage property in Whitwick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
