For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Cowpe
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Cowpe
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cowpe. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
For a price in Cowpe, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
FAQs for Cowpe
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cowpe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
