How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Toilet chip repair in Netherton without replacing anything

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, on porcelain, toilet pans and vitreous china.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairing versus replacing in Netherton

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Netherton

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Netherton. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Netherton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Netherton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
