How we handle toilet chip repair in Lathones

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lathones and across Fife. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lathones. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
