About our toilet chip repair in Hillyfields
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, across pedestals, vitreous china and porcelain.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hillyfields. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

FAQs for Hillyfields
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Do you come to Hillyfields?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hillyfields and the rest of Southampton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Hillyfields?

- Marks on the outside of the pan

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Hillyfields
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Hillyfields. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically 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.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Hillyfields, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
