Repair or replace in Hincaster?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour-matched on site
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

About our toilet chip repair in Hincaster
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to an hour or two.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Hincaster. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Hincaster
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
