Toilet chip repair in Drakemyre without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on vitreous china, pedestals and porcelain, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Drakemyre: your questions answered
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you come to Drakemyre?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Drakemyre from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Drakemyre
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Drakemyre. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Drakemyre, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When to call us in Drakemyre
