Toilet chip repair at your home in New Coundon
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. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, on pedestals, porcelain and vitreous china.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for New Coundon. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in New Coundon, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Questions from New Coundon
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
When to call us in New Coundon
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How your room will be protected
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take an hour or two, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
