For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Toilet chip repair in Darracott without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Darracott questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you come to Darracott?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Darracott. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
The whole UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Common problems we fix in Darracott

- Damage from dropped items

- Chips on the pan or rim
What to look for in a quote

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
Repairing versus replacing in Darracott
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
