About our toilet chip repair in North Kelvinside
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are often asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

North Kelvinside: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Glasgow. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you work in North Kelvinside?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to North Kelvinside from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
