Toilet chip repair for Jesmond homes

Toilet chip repair in Jesmond without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, on porcelain, toilet pans 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 use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Jesmond

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you come to Jesmond?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Jesmond. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Jesmond, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Get a quote

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Related advice

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Jesmond. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • Any details about the material

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Jesmond, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Jesmond?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add 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.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we work on in Jesmond

  • Porcelain
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Pedestals

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
