Toilet chip repair in Mayfield without replacing anything
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair vitreous china, pedestals and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairing versus replacing in Mayfield
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
