Toilet chip repair in Horden without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, in porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Horden. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Horden, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
