Toilet chip repair at your home in Coffinswell
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We’re often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, in toilet pans, porcelain and vitreous china.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What affects the price in Coffinswell
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Coffinswell
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coffinswell use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
