About our toilet chip repair in Scotstoun
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs 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. 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.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Do you need toilet chip repair in Scotstoun?
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
What affects the price in Scotstoun
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
