About our toilet chip repair in South Duffield

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, in pedestals, vitreous china and porcelain.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repairing versus replacing in South Duffield

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for South Duffield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour-matched on site

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair
