Balloch questions
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Toilet chip repair in Balloch without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, in vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Balloch
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Balloch. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. 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 items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We leave the room as we found it
- Same prices wherever you are
- One visit for most repairs
See our prices page.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow one to two hours.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Highland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
