Toilet chip repair at your home in Edmundbyers
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, across pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.
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. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Questions from Edmundbyers
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
