About our toilet chip repair in Elmswell
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Elmswell and across Suffolk. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What else we do in Elmswell
Should I try a DIY kit 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace in Elmswell?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Letting agents frequently 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.

Common questions in Elmswell
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
