How we handle toilet chip repair in Murthly

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We regularly repair toilet pans, porcelain and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

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 are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Questions from Murthly

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
