Toilet chip repair at your home in Northumberland Heath
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, across porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, 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.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace in Northumberland Heath?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
