Toilet chip repair across Cardiff: what to expect

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, on pedestals, porcelain and cisterns & lids.

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

We clean and dry the damaged area.
We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
It’s sanded flush.
The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Cardiff. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Near you in Cardiff

Other local landmarks include The Heath pub (under half a mile south), Roath Park (0.6 miles north-east) and Allensbank Primary School (less than half a mile north-west). The nearest railway station is Cathays station, about 0.9 miles south of the centre.

Should you replace it?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place.

Landlord and trade work in Cardiff

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Signs you need toilet chip repair

Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

The most common problems we are called about are:

Pieces knocked off during fitting
Chips on the cistern lid
Marks on the outside of the pan
Damage from dropped items

What affects the price in Cardiff

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

The colour and finish to match
Access to the area
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

One sharp close-up of the damage
A wider photo showing the entire toilet
Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
