Toilet chip repair in Whessoe without replacing anything
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 is what we find. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Whessoe: your questions answered
Do you come to Whessoe?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Whessoe and the rest of Darlington. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Whessoe. Prices do not change with location.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Whessoe.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Whessoe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you are in Whessoe and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
