Toilet chip repair in Cowthorpe without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on pedestals, vitreous china and porcelain, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works
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 tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Landlord and trade work in Cowthorpe
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cowthorpe use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Cowthorpe
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Cowthorpe: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do you come to Cowthorpe?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Cowthorpe and the rest of Leeds. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Cowthorpe included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Leeds.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What affects the price in Cowthorpe
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Cowthorpe. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
