Hempnall questions
Is there any odour?

How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What areas do you cover?
All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you work in Hempnall?
We do. We send a technician to Hempnall for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Toilet chip repair in Hempnall 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 the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
For anyone letting property in or around Hempnall, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Hempnall. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
For a price in Hempnall, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
