Toilet Chip Repair in Vassa
Toilet chip repair in Vassa without the cost of replacing. Send us photos for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Repairs from £95

Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Work done at your home or business
- No extra charge for your area

How we handle toilet chip repair in Vassa
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We regularly repair porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What else we do in Vassa
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Vassa. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Vassa, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Vassa questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you cover the whole of the Shetland Islands?
Everywhere in the UK, Vassa included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Vassa?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your ZE2 postcode.
