Advice
Toilet chip repair at your home in Hallthwaites
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Hallthwaites questions
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you come to Hallthwaites?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hallthwaites from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
