How we handle toilet chip repair in Richmond Hill
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We regularly repair toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
For a place like Richmond Hill, toilet chip repair is normally done in a few hours, with the toilet left in place.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Toilets in Richmond Hill homes
If you let a flat or house near Bournemouth station (about 0.8 miles north-east), we repair toilets between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly. If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Former Presbyterian Church of St Andrew, period sanitaryware is worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. In a smaller place like Richmond Hill, getting trades out for a full replacement can take time to arrange. A repair is one visit from us.
Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it. In a smaller place like Richmond Hill, parking is rarely a problem. If you are down a lane or a long drive, tell us when you book and we’ll plan for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Landlords, agents and businesses in Richmond Hill

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bournemouth and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
