Damaged toilet in Stanley? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Stanley
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 damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, across cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Stanley
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you work in Stanley?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Stanley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

We cover the whole UK, including Stanley and the rest of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans

If you manage property in Stanley, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
