Toilet chip repair for Trevone homes

How we handle toilet chip repair in Trevone

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We work on toilet pans, porcelain and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Trevone and across Cornwall. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Questions from Trevone

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you cover Trevone?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Trevone for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What toilet chip repair costs

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Trevone, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
