When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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’ll say what we think.

About our toilet chip repair in Tawstock
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Tawstock
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area

Tawstock questions
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover Tawstock?
We do. We send a technician to Tawstock for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are there extra charges for Tawstock?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tawstock as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What else we do in Tawstock
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
