About our toilet chip repair in Old Cantley
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, pedestals and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Doncaster. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Old Cantley questions
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Are there extra charges for Old Cantley?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
What else we do in Old Cantley
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Common problems we fix in Old Cantley
Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
