Toilet chip repair in Flowton, done in place
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, 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. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, across cisterns & lids, porcelain and toilet pans.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. 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.

Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Flowton?
Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan

Repair or replace in Flowton?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Flowton
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Flowton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
