Toilet chip repair at your home in Hunters Forstal
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed 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.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What affects the price in Hunters Forstal
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
If you are in Hunters Forstal and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
Common questions in Hunters Forstal
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Hunters Forstal
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
