About our toilet chip repair in Colgrain
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Our technicians work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colgrain
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Colgrain as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Colgrain, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Colgrain. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
