Toilet chip repair at your home in Fountainhall
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, across vitreous china, pedestals and porcelain.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fountainhall as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Fountainhall
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 before booking.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fountainhall as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
