About our toilet chip repair in Barnby Moor
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, across pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china.
Somewhere like Barnby Moor, an older toilet can be hard to match if replaced. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Nottinghamshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Repairing versus replacing in Barnby Moor
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Older homes around Barnby Moor may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.
Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Barnby Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One visit for most repairs
