Toilet chip repair in Bodley, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace in Bodley?
A new 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 repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
