About our toilet chip repair in Newbiggin
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, across cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Newbiggin?
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Common reasons people in Newbiggin contact us include:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Landlord and trade work in Newbiggin
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Newbiggin, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in Newbiggin
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
