Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, 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.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Hinton Ampner
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We work on porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, 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.

Questions from Hinton Ampner
Do you cover Hinton Ampner?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hinton Ampner. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hinton Ampner
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair

Prices and what affects them

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
