Book toilet chip repair in Treninnick

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Cisterns & lids
  • Porcelain
  • Toilet pans
  • Pedestals
  • Vitreous china

Toilet chip repair in Treninnick, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on vitreous china, pedestals and porcelain, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take an hour or two, including clearing up.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Treninnick

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

Most customers in Treninnick get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
