Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
About our toilet chip repair in Egloskerry
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, 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. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help.
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.

What affects the price in Egloskerry
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Egloskerry: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Are there extra charges for Egloskerry?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What areas do you cover?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
