A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We are often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, across toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What affects the price in Langton Matravers
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it

Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Older homes around Langton Matravers may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. A repair keeps the original.
Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy. Somewhere as small as Langton Matravers, access is normally the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the toilet chip repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space clear if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
