How we handle toilet chip repair in Rokeby
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can help.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Rokeby
Do you cover the entire of County Durham?
We cover the whole UK, including Rokeby and the rest of County Durham. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace in Rokeby?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Rokeby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take an hour or two, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
