Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Connor Downs, Cornwall
Problem with your toilet in Connor Downs? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Toilet chip repair in Connor Downs, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We’re often asked to fix damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, across toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Connor Downs as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price toilet chip repair

- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- 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’ll say what we think.

- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
