Toilet chip repair at your home in Gatehouse of Fleet
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, across vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in Gatehouse of Fleet
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DG7 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Your questions about toilet chip repair in Gatehouse of Fleet
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gatehouse of Fleet. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
