Toilet chip repair at your home in Inverleith
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Inverleith as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

FAQs for Inverleith
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Inverleith?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Inverleith and the rest of Edinburgh. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Edinburgh.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes an hour or two.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
