About our toilet chip repair in Pontefract
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, across cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs 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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Most jobs done in one visit

What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Pontefract

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole toilet
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you are in Pontefract and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Pontefract questions
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Wakefield.
Do you cover the entire of Wakefield?
Everywhere in the UK, Pontefract included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
