Toilet Chip Repair for Nigg homes
Fixed-price toilet chip repair in Nigg and the surrounding area, generally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items

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.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Nigg
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Nigg. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- 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
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IV19 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.

What happens next?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
