About our toilet chip repair in Lower Hamswell
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We regularly repair porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
In and around Lower Hamswell, older homes can have toilets that are hard to replace like for like. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Lower Hamswell: your questions answered
Can you restore the original toilets in an older house in Lower Hamswell?
Frequently, yes: original pieces are usually worth keeping. Send us photos and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Do you work for landlords with property near Oldfield Park station?
Of course: pictures and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover the whole of Bath and North East Somerset?
The whole UK, including all of Bath and North East Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. In an older home in a village like Lower Hamswell, replacing a toilet can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
