Landlord and trade work in St Ive
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
Toilet chip repair at your home in St Ive
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in St Ive
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
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 you’ll get one combined price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What areas do you cover?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole toilet
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take an hour or two, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re 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 fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Signs you need toilet chip repair in St Ive
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
Comparing quotes
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
