Toilet chip repair at your home in Upper Kilchattan
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, in porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals.
In a village like Upper Kilchattan, older cottages sometimes have period basins and toilets, which are worth repairing rather than replacing. We repair around makers’ marks where we can.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Advice
Should you replace it?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. In an older home in a village like Upper Kilchattan, replacing a toilet can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
