Toilet chip repair at your home in Thornton
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take an hour or two, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Thornton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
Repair or replace in Thornton?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
