Toilet chip repair at your home in Coaltown of Balgonie
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 can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
Somewhere like Coaltown of Balgonie, you may still have period sanitaryware, and those are worth keeping. We work around original marks where possible.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. In an older home in a village like Coaltown of Balgonie, replacing a toilet can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
