What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dyer's End. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Dyer's End, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace in Dyer's End?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
