FAQs for Scottish Borders
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of the Scottish Borders. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Toilet chip repair in Scottish Borders without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, across toilet pans, pedestals and vitreous china.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Scottish Borders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scottish Borders as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Scottish Borders and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we are called out for in Scottish Borders

Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items

What affects the price in Scottish Borders
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
