How we handle toilet chip repair in Bàgh a'Chaisteil

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, in vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bàgh a'Chaisteil and across Na h-Eileanan Siar. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Bàgh a'Chaisteil

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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.

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap

Landlord and trade work in Bàgh a'Chaisteil

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
