About our toilet chip repair in Peldon
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on pedestals, porcelain and toilet pans, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Peldon
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What affects the price in Peldon
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Peldon. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in Peldon get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Peldon
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
