Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Mickley, North Yorkshire
Problem with your toilet in Mickley? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Toilet chip repair in Mickley, done in place
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. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 pictures, as it can add time.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One picture of the entire toilet
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your HG4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Mickley questions
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Mickley?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HG4 postcode.
Do you come to Mickley?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Mickley and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
