Toilet chip repair in Hawnby

Toilet chip repair at your home in Hawnby

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, in vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Hawnby questions

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you come to Hawnby?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hawnby from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take an hour or two, including clearing up.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
