Toilet chip repair near Hinxhill

Toilet chip repair in Hinxhill without replacing anything

A crack that leaks can’t 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 do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re often asked to fix damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, across porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hinxhill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes an hour or two.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN25 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on
