Toilet chip repair in Team Valley

Toilet chip repair at your home in Team Valley

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’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We regularly repair vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans, and common reasons people get in touch are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 you book.

What we work on

  • Porcelain
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Vitreous china
  • Toilet pans

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Repair or replace in Team Valley?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Team Valley: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you come to Team Valley?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Team Valley and the rest of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Team Valley included. There is no extra charge for travel.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to an hour or two, including clearing up.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

What affects the price in Team Valley

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Team Valley. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
