How we handle toilet chip repair in Braehoulland
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We work on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Braehoulland and across the Shetland Islands. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What affects the price in Braehoulland
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Shetland Islands and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One price list for the entire UK
- A fixed quote before booking

FAQs for Braehoulland
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
