About our toilet chip repair in Eltringham

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Eltringham and across Northumberland. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Eltringham

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Eltringham, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Porcelain
  • Toilet pans
  • Cisterns & lids

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Eltringham

Repair or replace in Eltringham?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
