How we handle toilet chip repair in Jumpers Common
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We are often asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, across cisterns & lids, toilet pans and pedestals.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Jumpers Common, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
