Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting

How we handle toilet chip repair in The Village
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our technicians work on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in The Village
For anyone letting property in or around The Village, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What else we do in The Village
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What affects the price in The Village
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to The Village. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for The Village. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole toilet
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
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 price the job.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Questions from The Village
Do you come to The Village?
We do. Technicians travel to The Village from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover the entire of Newport?
Everywhere in the UK, The Village included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
