How we handle toilet chip repair in Portlethen
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s 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. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, on cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Portlethen and across Aberdeen. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Portlethen
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
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’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Advice
What affects the price in Portlethen
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your AB12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Portlethen questions
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
