Book toilet chip repair in Hawcross

Toilet chip repair at your home in Hawcross

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, across pedestals, porcelain and toilet pans.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your GL19 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Hawcross. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Hawcross get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Hawcross

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Hawcross?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Are there extra charges for Hawcross?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace in Hawcross?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
