Toilet chip repair at your home in Merriott
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, 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 work on pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Merriott
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are there extra charges for Merriott?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you work in Merriott?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Merriott. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the entire of Somerset?
The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
