Toilet chip repair at your home in Black Dog
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Our technicians work on pedestals, porcelain and toilet pans, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Black Dog
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX17 postcode.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
