Toilet chip repair in Portobello, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We regularly repair vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
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.

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Portobello?
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Before you book anyone
- How to care for the finish
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Honest limits
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 you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
