Our hiring checklist

Toilet chip repair at your home in Newcastle Great Park

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. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes one to two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Toilet pans
  • Vitreous china
  • Porcelain
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Common questions in Newcastle Great Park

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
