How we handle toilet chip repair in Old Drumchapel
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair toilet pans, vitreous china and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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)

What affects the price in Old Drumchapel
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Old Drumchapel. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you do not 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.

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

FAQs for Old Drumchapel
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your G15 postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
