Toilet chip repair in Cantref, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, in vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Cantref and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NP7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Cantref

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

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

Questions to ask before you book

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Cantref

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

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.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the 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.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Should you replace it?

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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
