About our toilet chip repair in Hemerdon
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will 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. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and porcelain.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Hemerdon questions
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow an hour or two, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
Most clients in Hemerdon get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
