How we handle toilet chip repair in St Minver
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are 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 needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
Questions from St Minver
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for St Minver. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PL27 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
