About our toilet chip repair in Craigleith
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for Craigleith
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you come to Craigleith?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Craigleith and the rest of Edinburgh. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are there extra charges for Craigleith?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
