Toilet chip repair in Lochmaddy without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, across porcelain, vitreous china and toilet pans.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Lochmaddy
How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for an hour or two from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when 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.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lochmaddy
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
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.
FAQs for Lochmaddy
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you come to Lochmaddy?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lochmaddy from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
