Landlord and trade work in Combe Throop
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Toilet chip repair in Combe Throop without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it 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’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Combe Throop as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace in Combe Throop?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

FAQs for Combe Throop
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Combe Throop is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
