How we handle toilet chip repair in Corrie
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can generally put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Ayrshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
