DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
About our toilet chip repair in Kenley
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do I have to be there?
