DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Hillbutts
A crack that leaks can’t 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. We regularly repair pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Hillbutts
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you come to Hillbutts?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Hillbutts from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Hillbutts?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Landlord and trade work in Hillbutts
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hillbutts use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

- We sand the repair level.
