Toilet chip repair at your home in Newtonmore
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Newtonmore as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newtonmore as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Newtonmore. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

FAQs for Newtonmore
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Newtonmore and the rest of Highland. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d 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 you book.
What we work on
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
What else we do in Newtonmore
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PH20 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
