Toilet chip repair in Potterhanworth Booths

Toilet chip repair in Potterhanworth Booths without replacing anything

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.

In and around Potterhanworth Booths, older homes can have toilets that are hard to replace like for like. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. For a rural home like those around Potterhanworth Booths, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
