Toilet chip repair at your home in Jack's Mere
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.
