Toilet chip repair in Failsworth, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Failsworth?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Failsworth
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can I get a quote without a visit?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How do I book?

How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
