Toilet chip repair at your home in Lochend
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Lochend: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What areas do you cover?
All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Lochend?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EH7 postcode.
Do you come to Lochend?

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Lochend. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
