Toilet chip repair in The Hummicks

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 leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How we handle toilet chip repair in The Hummicks

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We regularly repair vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SO42 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
