Toilet chip repair in Saughtonhall without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can normally put it right, on toilet pans, pedestals and vitreous china alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take an hour or two. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Saughtonhall get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Saughtonhall clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
