Toilet chip repair in Hayton, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can typically put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Questions from Hayton
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are there extra charges for Hayton?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you come to Hayton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Hayton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
