DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Tamerton Foliot
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched 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. We work on toilet pans, vitreous china and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Tamerton Foliot?

- Pieces knocked off during fitting

When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tamerton Foliot
If you manage property in Tamerton Foliot, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
