Toilet chip repair in Penhallick without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on vitreous china, pedestals and toilet pans, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Penhallick: your questions answered
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Penhallick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
