How we handle toilet chip repair in Avon Castle
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, in porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Questions from Avon Castle
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
