Toilet chip repair at your home in Hawkinge
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can help, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What else we do in Hawkinge
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
