How we handle toilet chip repair in Buck's Cross

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, in pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What information do you need?

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens on the day

What affects the price in Buck's Cross

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole toilet

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
