How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Hapsford

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can usually put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Cisterns & lids
  • Pedestals
  • Porcelain
  • Vitreous china
  • Toilet pans

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a 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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
