A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Exnaboe
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on pedestals, vitreous china and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Exnaboe and across the Shetland Islands. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Exnaboe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Common questions in Exnaboe
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Exnaboe?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Covering Exnaboe
Exnaboe is about 19 miles south of Lerwick, in the Shetland Islands. From the centre of Exnaboe to the outlying streets, the service is the same: a fixed quote, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Exnaboe is one of 63 towns and villages in the Shetland Islands where we work.
Postcode districts we cover here: ZE3. We also cover the places around Exnaboe: Toab (1 mile west), Hestingott (1 mile west), Scatness (1 mile south), Boddam (2 miles north) and South Scousburgh (3 miles north). Some remote addresses need extra planning, so it’s best to call first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
