How we handle toilet chip repair in South Petherwin
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Other services in South Petherwin
Landlords, agents and businesses in South Petherwin
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in South Petherwin, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Your questions about toilet chip repair in South Petherwin
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Cornwall.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you come to South Petherwin?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to South Petherwin and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Common problems we fix in South Petherwin
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
