Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
About our toilet chip repair in Ardpeaton
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, in pedestals, porcelain and toilet pans.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Ardpeaton
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover the entire of Argyll and Bute?
We cover the whole UK, including Ardpeaton and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire toilet
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Cisterns & lids

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
