About our toilet chip repair in Haythorne
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right, on porcelain, vitreous china and toilet pans alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes one to two hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Haythorne. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Haythorne
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
