Questions from Balmacara
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Balmacara included. There is no extra charge for travel.
About our toilet chip repair in Balmacara
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, in pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
