Toilet chip repair in Burnrigg, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on pedestals, porcelain and vitreous china, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Burnrigg
Do you work in Burnrigg?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Burnrigg for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Burnrigg included. Travel is included in the price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burnrigg use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Burnrigg. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
