How we handle toilet chip repair in Stillington
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We work on cisterns & lids, pedestals and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Stillington and across County Durham. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

FAQs for Stillington
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Which areas do you work in?
All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Cisterns & lids
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One visit for most repairs
- Rooms protected and left tidy

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
