About our toilet chip repair in Seaton

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Common questions in Seaton

How much does toilet chip repair cost in Seaton?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you come to Seaton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Seaton and the rest of Cornwall. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Seaton and the rest of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Seaton.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Vitreous china
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Pedestals
  • Toilet pans
  • Porcelain

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Seaton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Seaton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
