About our toilet chip repair in Waverton
A crack that leaks can’t 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 don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can help, on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Waverton
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waverton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Common questions in Waverton
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two hours.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Waverton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
