How we handle toilet chip repair in Hawkes End
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and porcelain.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

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. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.

Do you cover the whole of Coventry?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
