Advice
About our toilet chip repair in Ruswarp
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can typically put it right, on porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ruswarp use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids

What affects the price in Ruswarp
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ruswarp. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Repair or replace in Ruswarp?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A fixed quote before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Ruswarp
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
