Toilet chip repair for Cremyll homes

Toilet chip repair in Cremyll without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not 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 work on pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Toilet pans
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Pedestals
  • Vitreous china
  • Porcelain

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we’re called out for in Cremyll

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the cistern lid

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Cremyll

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Cremyll.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Cremyll

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Take a look at our pricing.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Cremyll, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cremyll

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
