An Tairbeart: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
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.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How we handle toilet chip repair in An Tairbeart
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in An Tairbeart and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair

- How much damage there is

- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in An Tairbeart, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
When to call us in An Tairbeart
