Toilet chip repair in Pool, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Pool questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Devon.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
What affects the price in Pool
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pool. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
