How we handle toilet chip repair in Polruan
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. If you are dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.
Somewhere like Polruan, you may still have period sanitaryware, and those are worth keeping. We repair around makers’ marks where we can.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole toilet

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Polruan: what to know about toilet chip repair
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Polruan Primary Academy, toilets and washrooms can be repaired in place too. If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Church of St Fimbarrus Or St Nicholas, it may still have original basins or a period toilet, which are worth repairing rather than replacing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Replacement in Polruan means trades, travel and waste removal, while toilet chip repair is one trip.
Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, 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.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Polruan: your questions answered
Will you travel to Polruan?

Do you work for landlords with property near Par station?
Yes, we often work between tenancies, and several addresses can be quoted together.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What we are called out for in Polruan
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
Rented homes near Par station (about 3.7 miles north-west) change hands often, and repairing toilets between tenants is quicker than replacing them.
