Toilet chip repair near Tullos

Repairing versus replacing in Tullos

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, 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.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs

Toilet chip repair in Tullos, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, in porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tullos and across Aberdeen. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Tullos. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

Most customers in Tullos get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes an hour or two. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Common problems we fix in Tullos

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Aberdeen and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
