Toilet chip repair at your home in Hendra
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, we can usually put it right, on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Fixed prices from your pictures

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Hendra, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
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.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
