Toilet chip repair at your home in Middleton-by-Youlgrave

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Pedestals
  • Porcelain
  • Vitreous china
  • Toilet pans

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
