Toilet chip repair in Perceton, done in place
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Perceton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Ayrshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Questions from Perceton
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are there extra charges for Perceton?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Perceton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means 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. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
