How we handle toilet chip repair in Wester Hailes
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is 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. Our technicians work on pedestals, porcelain and toilet pans, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Wester Hailes: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Do you work in Wester Hailes?
We do. Technicians travel to Wester Hailes from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairing versus replacing in Wester Hailes
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Wester Hailes. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A fixed quote before you book
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Usually one visit, start to finish

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
