Repairing versus replacing in Penryn
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us

Toilet chip repair in Penryn without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Penryn. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
