How we handle toilet chip repair in Cleasby
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, on pedestals, vitreous china and toilet pans.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Cleasby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common problems we fix in Cleasby
Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
