Toilet chip repair at your home in Tarrant Hinton
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Tarrant Hinton questions
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Are there extra charges for Tarrant Hinton?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
Repairing versus replacing in Tarrant Hinton
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. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Related advice
What we’re called out for in Tarrant Hinton
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
Before you book anyone
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
