How we handle toilet chip repair in Earlston
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. 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 common reasons people get in touch are chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Earlston
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you work in Earlston?
We do. Technicians travel to Earlston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Other services in Earlston
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Landlord and trade work in Earlston
For anyone letting property in or around Earlston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.
Repairing versus replacing in Earlston
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour-matched on site
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Rooms protected and left tidy
