Toilet chip repair in Garioch, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We work on porcelain, vitreous china and toilet pans, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Garioch: your questions answered
Do you cover the entire of Aberdeenshire?
The whole UK, including all of Aberdeenshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common problems we fix in Garioch
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
