How we handle toilet chip repair in Fairstead
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, across porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 typically cheaper.
