Common questions in Hazelslack
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.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
About our toilet chip repair in Hazelslack
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Hazelslack
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not 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.
When to call us in Hazelslack
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
- Whether they match the colour on site
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not 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 will reply with a fixed quote.
