Are there extra charges for Gowkshill?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
About our toilet chip repair in Gowkshill
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, across cisterns & lids, vitreous china and porcelain.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Gowkshill and across Midlothian. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Gowkshill
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Fixed prices from your pictures
Read our prices page.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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 will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Gowkshill
- Pedestals
- Toilet pans

What affects the price in Gowkshill
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Gowkshill. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
