Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DL8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
About our toilet chip repair in Preston-under-Scar
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

When to call us in Preston-under-Scar
Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in Preston-under-Scar
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
