What we cannot put right

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.

What we work on

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

Toilet chip repair in Hopley's Green without replacing anything

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

FAQs for Hopley's Green

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow one to two hours.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we’re called out for in Hopley's Green
