Toilet chip repair in Gyllyngvase, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We’re often asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, on porcelain, toilet pans and vitreous china.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure 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.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow an hour or two, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
