Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Dore, Sheffield
Damaged toilet in Dore? We put it right where it is, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from dropped items

Toilet chip repair in Dore, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can normally put it right, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Dore
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you cover Dore?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Dore for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans

Repair or replace in Dore?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Dore. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
