Repair or replace: which is better?

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

About our toilet chip repair in Foxhole
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can help, on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and pedestals alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Foxhole: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you cover Foxhole?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Foxhole from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Foxhole and the rest of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Foxhole
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
