Toilet Chip Repair for Kingennie homes

Toilet chip repair in Kingennie without replacing anything
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. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can normally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Kingennie?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow one to two hours.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage

- Natural light rather than flash
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
