Toilet chip repair for Hurst Green homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Same prices wherever you are

Toilet chip repair in Hurst Green without replacing anything

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 say so if we find one. Our technicians work on vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Hurst Green

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

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

When a repair is not the answer

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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Hurst Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
