Toilet chip repair in Shettleston, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can typically put it right, on porcelain, toilet pans and vitreous china alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, 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.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Shettleston. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Common questions in Shettleston
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you come to Shettleston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Shettleston. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shettleston as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
