Toilet Chip Repair for Wix homes
Chip and break repairs to toilets, cisterns and other ceramics for householders, landlords and businesses in Wix. Free, fixed quotes from your photos.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Wix. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Wix
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. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can typically put it right, on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Wix
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CO11 postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Are there extra charges for Wix?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Wix?
Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means 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. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow an hour or two. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
