How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Newbie. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Toilet chip repair in Newbie, done in place
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Newbie
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Dumfries and Galloway, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 generally cheaper.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newbie
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbie as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Rooms protected and left tidy
