About our toilet chip repair in Whitecraigs

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Glasgow. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes one to two hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Whitecraigs

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Landlord and trade work in Whitecraigs

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Glasgow and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a 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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Whitecraigs

  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Toilet pans
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Porcelain

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When to call us in Whitecraigs

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What aftercare is recommended
