Toilet chip repair for Roslin homes

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Toilet chip repair in Roslin without replacing anything

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll 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. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, across toilet pans, pedestals and vitreous china.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Roslin

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When to call us in Roslin

Landlords, agents and businesses in Roslin

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Roslin use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Midlothian and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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

  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids
