Toilet Chip Repair for Fordoun homes
Our technicians come to Fordoun for chip and break repairs to toilets, cisterns and other ceramics. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Fordoun
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Aberdeenshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Fordoun questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
