Capheaton questions
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole toilet and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you cover the entire of Northumberland?
We cover the whole UK, including Capheaton and the rest of Northumberland. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Capheaton
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Capheaton and across Northumberland. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What else we do in Capheaton
What affects the price in Capheaton
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Repair or replace in Capheaton?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When to call us in Capheaton
Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
Landlords, agents and businesses in Capheaton
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
