About our toilet chip repair in Elswick
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Elswick
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Do you cover Elswick?
We do. We send a technician to Elswick for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. 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. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we do, step by step

- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

- Clear the area around the damage

- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts

What affects the price in Elswick
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PR4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
