How we handle toilet chip repair in Dowsdale

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on pedestals, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace in Dowsdale?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Dowsdale

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Do you come to Dowsdale?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Dowsdale. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Toilet pans

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit 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, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
