About our toilet chip repair in Hermitage
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, on pedestals, porcelain and cisterns & lids.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

When to call us in Hermitage
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

For anyone letting property in or around Hermitage, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Hermitage questions
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Are there extra charges for Hermitage?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across West Berkshire.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow one to two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
