About our toilet chip repair in New Galloway
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair pedestals, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dumfries and Galloway. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What affects the price in New Galloway
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around New Galloway, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Common questions in New Galloway
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Work done at your home or business
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
