About our toilet chip repair in Kelloholm
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We are often asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, on toilet pans, vitreous china and pedestals.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Kelloholm and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Related advice
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
