About our toilet chip repair in Coalburns
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can typically put it right, on porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Coalburns and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Coalburns
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Coalburns. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NE40 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
