Toilet chip repair at your home in Barton Gate

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, in toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

If you manage property in Barton Gate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Barton Gate and the rest of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
