Toilet chip repair in and around Borth: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95

Toilet chip repair in Borth, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, in vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Ceredigion. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in Borth
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Borth: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in Borth
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job without visiting.

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
