About our toilet chip repair in Peterston-super-Ely
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Peterston-super-Ely. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole toilet
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CF5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes one to two hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 booking.
