Toilet chip repair in Harrowbarrow without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Harrowbarrow and across Cornwall. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common questions in Harrowbarrow
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are there extra charges for Harrowbarrow?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you come to Harrowbarrow?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Harrowbarrow and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take an hour or two, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Harrowbarrow, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
