Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Dinnington, Newcastle upon Tyne

Toilet chip repair at your home in Dinnington
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What else we do in Dinnington
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlord and trade work in Dinnington
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dinnington as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you are in Dinnington and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Questions from Dinnington
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your NE13 postcode.
Repair or replace in Dinnington?
Replacing a toilet means 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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
