About our toilet chip repair in St Lawrence
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in St Lawrence
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to St Lawrence. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PL31 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
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.
If you manage property in St Lawrence, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Common problems we fix in St Lawrence
