Repair or replace in Hele?
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. Prices start from £95. The price 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 pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Toilet chip repair in Hele without replacing anything
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. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

When we would advise against a repair

What affects the price in Hele
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hele. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hele use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take an hour or two.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

FAQs for Hele
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
