Toilet chip repair in Skelton on Ure without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, in toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
