Toilet chip repair in Hougham without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, in toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Hougham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Hougham
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hougham use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in Hougham
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job without visiting.

Hougham questions
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
