Toilet chip repair in Drinsey Nook without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Drinsey Nook as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
Repairing versus replacing in Drinsey Nook
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
