What affects the price in Darfoulds
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
About our toilet chip repair in Darfoulds
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. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Darfoulds as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently 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.
Darfoulds: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Related advice
Repairing versus replacing in Darfoulds
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
