How we handle toilet chip repair in Drub
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 the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, in pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Drub: your questions answered
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Kirklees.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BD19 postcode.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Drub
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Drub, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in Drub and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

- A crack that leaks water

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
