What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hilton. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job.

About our toilet chip repair in Hilton

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can usually put it right, on vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids alike.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Toilet pans
  • Porcelain

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Hilton

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you come to Hilton?

We do. Technicians travel to Hilton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Highland. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.
