Toilet chip repair in Newbiggin

Toilet chip repair in Newbiggin without replacing anything

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, in porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Newbiggin. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newbiggin. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. 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 photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newbiggin

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbiggin use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Newbiggin

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Newbiggin and the rest of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you cover Newbiggin?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Newbiggin from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
