Toilet chip repair at your home in Hoburne Park
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, in cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Hoburne Park?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Hoburne Park: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Are there extra charges for Hoburne Park?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
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 pictures of everything you’d like done.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
What affects the price in Hoburne Park
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
