Advice
Toilet chip repair in Child's Ercall, done in place
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. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Somewhere like Child's Ercall, an older toilet can be hard to match if replaced. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Child's Ercall
My house in Child's Ercall is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
In most cases: original pieces are often better made and harder to replace. Send pictures and we will advise.
Do you come out to small places like Child's Ercall?
Yes, we do: small places like Child's Ercall are covered as standard. Just mention any tricky access.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are there extra charges for Child's Ercall?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Child's Ercall.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Child's Ercall?
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
In the older streets of Child's Ercall, around landmarks like Church of St Michael, it may still have original basins or a period toilet, which are worth repairing rather than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. In an older home in a village like Child's Ercall, replacing a toilet can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
