What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take one to two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Crumplehorn

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, in vitreous china, pedestals and cisterns & lids.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

FAQs for Crumplehorn

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Do you cover Crumplehorn?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Crumplehorn and the rest of Cornwall. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Crumplehorn?

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

A new toilet needs 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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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, and the work is guaranteed.
