Our hiring checklist

Toilet chip repair at your home in Croes y pant

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, in toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Croes y pant

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

  • No extra charge for your area

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
