Toilet chip repair in Landrake, done in place
A crack that leaks can’t 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 don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Other services in Landrake
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
FAQs for Landrake
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do you cover Landrake?
We do. Technicians travel to Landrake from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
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.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Our work in Landrake

Our visits in PL12 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. From School Road, Geffery Close and North Road or anywhere nearby, a technician can come to you. We also travel to St Erney (1 mile south), Trematon (1 mile south-east), Hatt (2 miles north-east), Carkeel (2 miles east) and Burraton Coombe (2 miles east).

Local landmarks in Landrake
Typical jobs here are in homes near Church of St Michael and The Buller's Arms. Landrake’s nearest station is St Germans station, about 2.1 miles south-west of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Elliott's Shop (3.6 miles east) and Trematon Castle (2.7 miles south-east).
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
