About our toilet chip repair in Inverinate
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re often asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, on toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Inverinate. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire toilet
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Inverinate
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china

Do you need toilet chip repair in Inverinate?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
People normally call us when they notice something like this:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inverinate as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Inverinate
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
