How to repair a concrete letterbox?

Hi Everyone,

Seeking advice on the best way to repair this chip in our letterbox please.

It is the Northcote pottery Avonlea letterbox.

Thank you

Re: Letterbox repair

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @cj2211. It's wonderful to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about repairing a letterbox.

I’d recommend filling the damaged area with Polyfilla 500g Exterior Brick and Render Masonry. This product will provide a smooth, durable finish. Once you've applied the filler, sand it flush with the surrounding surface to ensure a seamless repair.

 

After that, you can touch up the repaired area with a colour-matched paint. We offer a range of colour cards in-store that can help you find a shade that closely matches the original colour of your letterbox. If you’re unsure, take a small sample of the existing paint along to find the best match.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
