What affects the price in Ryhope
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ryhope. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Ryhope
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What a repair can’t fix

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Common problems we fix in Ryhope
