How we handle toilet chip repair in Dunecht
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, in toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Dunecht get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Dunecht. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What else we do in Dunecht
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
