Need toilet chip repair in Dungate?

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Toilet chip repair in Dungate, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take an hour or two, including clearing up.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

What affects the price in Dungate

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Questions from Dungate

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Dungate and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Dungate.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.
