About our toilet chip repair in Slapton
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on pedestals, vitreous china and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace in Slapton?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
