About our toilet chip repair in Edinburgh Waterfront
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Repair or replace in Edinburgh Waterfront?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Common questions in Edinburgh Waterfront
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Edinburgh Waterfront. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
