Toilet chip repair near Par

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

About our toilet chip repair in Par

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Par and across Cornwall. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Par?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Par

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

Everywhere in the UK, Par included. Travel is included in the price.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When to call us in Par

Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid

Comparing quotes

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes one to two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
