About our toilet chip repair in Uplyme
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Uplyme?
Replacing a toilet needs 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
