How we handle toilet chip repair in New Seaham
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, across vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in New Seaham
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Comparing quotes

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Repair or replace in New Seaham?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Rooms protected and left tidy
