Toilet chip repair at your home in Hunger Hill

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. If you are dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Hunger Hill

Are there extra charges for Hunger Hill?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you accredited?

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

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

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Hunger Hill?

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area

Take a look at our pricing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
