Toilet & ceramic chip repair in St Sidwells, Devon

Toilet chip repair in St Sidwells, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our technicians work on pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole toilet
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
When to call us in St Sidwells
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
Comparing quotes
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For anyone letting property in or around St Sidwells, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
