Toilet chip repair in Thorpe St Peter without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow one to two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

Common questions in Thorpe St Peter
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Is it messy?

Repair or replace in Thorpe St Peter?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
