DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.
About our toilet chip repair in Chawton
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. 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, porcelain and pedestals, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Chawton
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
