How we handle toilet chip repair in Crofton
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, across porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
