Repairing versus replacing in Eccleshill
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

About our toilet chip repair in Eccleshill
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We work on toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Eccleshill
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BD2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
FAQs for Eccleshill
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Eccleshill.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Landlord and trade work in Eccleshill
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Eccleshill as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Honest limits
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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two hours, including clearing up.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
