About our toilet chip repair in West Tanfield
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’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)

What affects the price in West Tanfield
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in West Tanfield
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
