Repairing versus replacing in Antony

About our toilet chip repair in Antony
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can usually put it right, on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Antony
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
Everywhere in the UK, Antony included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
When to call us in Antony
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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 toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
