What affects the price in Grindiscol
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Grindiscol. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your ZE2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Toilet chip repair in Grindiscol without replacing anything
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Shetland Islands. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Repairing versus replacing in Grindiscol
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
