Toilet chip repair at your home in Hassop
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is 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. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Hassop
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Hassop
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. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we cannot put right

Other services in Hassop
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Hassop
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
