About our toilet chip repair in Old Dolphin
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can usually put it right, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. 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 can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Old Dolphin?

Look out for any of the following:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Before you book anyone
- If travel is included in the price

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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.
Materials we work on in Old Dolphin
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire toilet
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
