Toilet chip repair in Ilketshall St Lawrence, done in place
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. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, across toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
