Toilet chip repair across Lelant and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the cistern lid

How we handle toilet chip repair in Lelant
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole toilet
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Lelant, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Lelant
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens if you find more damage?

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
