Need toilet chip repair in Dallington?

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

About our toilet chip repair in Dallington

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can generally put it right, on cisterns & lids, pedestals and toilet pans alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Dallington as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we are called out for in Dallington

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our full price list.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Dallington

Work for landlords and builders

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Dallington: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NN5 postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
