About our toilet chip repair in Coltness
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What affects the price in Coltness
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Coltness: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Coltness and the rest of North Lanarkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you come to Coltness?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Coltness from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Coltness
Replacing a toilet needs 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
