Book toilet chip repair in Dollis Hill

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Toilet chip repair in Dollis Hill without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Dollis Hill as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in Dollis Hill

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

  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.

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
