Toilet chip repair in Lanjeth without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Lanjeth?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Landlord and trade work in Lanjeth

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lanjeth, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Vitreous china
  • Porcelain
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Pedestals
  • Toilet pans

When to call us in Lanjeth

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
