- Repairs from £95
- Pieces knocked off during fitting

How we handle toilet chip repair in Cornwood
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. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, on cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Cornwood: your questions answered
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Cornwood. Prices don’t change with location.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What affects the price in Cornwood
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we are called out for in Cornwood
Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
What to look for in a quote
- If travel is included in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
