Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Toilet chip repair in Acharacle, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Acharacle
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover Acharacle?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Acharacle. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Acharacle
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Acharacle. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the 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
- Open a window if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
