Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Toilet chip repair in Widdington without replacing anything
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, vitreous china and pedestals, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Widdington?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. 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, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Widdington
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you cover Widdington?
We do. We send a technician to Widdington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Widdington
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items

- What protection goes down before work starts
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Widdington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire toilet
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CB11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’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 photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
