Toilet chip repair in Drumry, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Drumry
A new toilet means 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When a repair is not the answer

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
