Toilet chip repair at your home in Cornton
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched 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 will say so if we find one. We are often asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, in vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Stirling. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What affects the price in Cornton
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cornton. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cornton
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Cornton questions
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
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.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you come to Cornton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Cornton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Repairing versus replacing in Cornton
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
