Toilet Chip Repair in Vale of Glamorgan

Toilet chip repair at your home in the Vale of Glamorgan

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We work on porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
3. We sand the repair level.
4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
5. We polish the repair to blend it in.
