Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your YO8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Gateforth
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gateforth use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Common questions in Gateforth
