Toilet chip repair at your home in Milltown of Rothiemay
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
In a village like Milltown of Rothiemay, older cottages sometimes have period basins and toilets, which are worth repairing rather than replacing. We work around original marks where possible.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

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. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Milltown of Rothiemay
