How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Tobermory, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Toilet chip repair in Tobermory, done in place
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can normally put it right, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Argyll and Bute. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Repairing versus replacing in Tobermory
A new 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
