Toilet chip repair near Cramond

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Cramond, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Cramond

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Common problems we fix in Cramond

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

Common reasons people in Cramond contact us include:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Damage from dropped items

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow an hour or two. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Cramond, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
