Trusted toilet chip repair in Lulworth Cove

Toilet chip repair in Lulworth Cove, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can normally put it right, on porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Lulworth Cove questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dorset.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take an hour or two.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain
  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Toilet pans
