About our toilet chip repair in Drumoig
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re frequently asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, in pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Drumoig and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Around Drumoig

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Drumoig
- Cisterns & lids
- Pedestals

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Drumoig, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
