Toilet chip repair in Faverdale, done in place
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’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We’re often asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, in cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Darlington. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace in Faverdale?
A new 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Faverdale
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
