Damaged toilet in Cleadon? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
How we handle toilet chip repair in Cleadon
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Your questions about toilet chip repair in Cleadon
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you come to Cleadon?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Cleadon. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Repairing versus replacing in Cleadon
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
