How we handle toilet chip repair in Stourscombe
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, across toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Stourscombe
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PL15 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Questions from Stourscombe
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
The whole UK, including all of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
