About our toilet chip repair in Ellenabeich
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Argyll and Bute. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Ellenabeich
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes an hour or two. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ellenabeich. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Signs you need toilet chip repair in Ellenabeich
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to care for the finish
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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.
Ellenabeich questions
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
