Toilet chip repair for Shaldon, without a refit. Send us photos for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Shaldon
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Shaldon
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Shaldon is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Shaldon
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Shaldon?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
Questions to ask before booking
- How to look after the finish
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
