Need toilet chip repair in Biggar?

Toilet chip repair in Biggar without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Biggar, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the whole UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

FAQs for Biggar

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
