About our toilet chip repair in Harome
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
In and around Harome, older homes can have toilets that are hard to replace like for like. A repair keeps everything matching.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlord and trade work in Harome
For anyone letting property in or around Harome, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take one to two hours, tidy-up included. In a village or hamlet like Harome, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Older homes around Harome may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. A repair keeps the original.
Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
