Toilet chip repair in Long Newton without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, 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. We work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Long Newton
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

How quickly can you book me in?

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. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Long Newton
For anyone letting property in or around Long Newton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
