Toilet chip repair at your home in Hawes
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For a price in Hawes, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
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 pictures.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Hawes
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hawes for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
