How we handle toilet chip repair in Stump Cross
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What we work on
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
FAQs for Stump Cross
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What areas do you cover?
All of Calderdale, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do you work in Stump Cross?
We do. We send a technician to Stump Cross for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
