The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to an hour or two.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry

Toilet chip repair in Hogaland, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

FAQs for Hogaland

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Are there extra charges for Hogaland?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Hogaland?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Toilet pans
  • Porcelain
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Vitreous china

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hogaland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
