DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Toilet chip repair in Aird, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our technicians work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Aird questions
Do you come to Aird?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Aird for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Aird?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DG9 postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Aird. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
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.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repairing versus replacing in Aird
A new toilet needs 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Aird
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job.
