Toilet chip repair at your home in Norton-on-Derwent
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, on toilet pans, pedestals and vitreous china.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?

What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
