About our toilet chip repair in Battlefield
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, in cisterns & lids, porcelain and toilet pans.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Your questions about toilet chip repair in Battlefield
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Battlefield?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you cover the whole of Newcastle upon Tyne?
Across the UK, so Battlefield is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common problems we fix in Battlefield
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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 you book.
What we work on
