DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

About our toilet chip repair in Wicken

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We regularly repair vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and common reasons people get in touch are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace in Wicken?

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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 work on in Wicken

  • Cisterns & lids
  • Vitreous china
  • Toilet pans

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Wicken. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Wicken: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

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.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Wicken?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your MK19 postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
