For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunwich as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Toilet chip repair in Dunwich without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, on toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Dunwich
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Dunwich. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Dunwich
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
We cover the entire UK, including Dunwich and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Dunwich?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Dunwich. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
