Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Great Livermere, Suffolk

- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
Toilet chip repair at your home in Great Livermere
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Great Livermere and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Great Livermere. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
