About our toilet chip repair in Corntown

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, on vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Corntown and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes an hour or two, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Questions from Corntown

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Corntown included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you work in Corntown?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Corntown and the rest of Devon. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Corntown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repairing versus replacing in Corntown

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
