How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Killochyett
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
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.

Questions from Killochyett
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Are there extra charges for Killochyett?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repairing versus replacing in Killochyett
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Everything repaired in place
- Rooms protected and left tidy
See our prices page.

- 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 before you book.
