Toilet Chip Repair for Bar End homes
Our technicians come to Bar End for chip and break repairs to toilets, cisterns and other ceramics. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Bar End
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, in porcelain, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Bar End and across Hampshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Bar End
Repair or replace in Bar End?
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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Bar End questions
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
Across the UK, and that includes Bar End. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you cover Bar End?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Bar End from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Are there extra charges for Bar End?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
