How the visit works

- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

Toilet chip repair at your home in Hilgay
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair toilet pans, vitreous china and pedestals, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 normally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Nothing taken out or refitted

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china

- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hilgay use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
