How we handle toilet chip repair in Hallowood

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We work on pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hallowood. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hallowood. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Hallowood

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you work in Hallowood?

We do. We send a technician to Hallowood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What about a leaking crack?

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

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.
