Toilet chip repair in Askham Bryan, done in place
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 you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your YO23 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Askham Bryan questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you cover Askham Bryan?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Askham Bryan and the rest of York. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Landlord and trade work in Askham Bryan
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
