How we handle toilet chip repair in Layer-de-la-Haye
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, on toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Layer-de-la-Haye as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
