How we handle toilet chip repair in Hartley
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colour-matched on site
- No extra charge for your area

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Common questions in Hartley
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
