Toilet chip repair at your home in Hixon
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 regularly repair pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Hixon
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your ST18 postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Hixon. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
