About our toilet chip repair in Hennock
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, we can typically put it right, on porcelain, cisterns & lids and vitreous china alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most clients in Hennock get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hennock: your questions answered
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
