Toilet chip repair at your home in Marley Hill
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on vitreous china, porcelain and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gateshead. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

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.
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.
