About our toilet chip repair in Cheriton Bishop

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can typically put it right, on vitreous china, pedestals and porcelain alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Cheriton Bishop

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Devon.

Can tenants book a repair?

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Cheriton Bishop. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cheriton Bishop

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take an hour or two, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

For a price in Cheriton Bishop, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
