Questions from Congl-y-wal
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you cover Congl-y-wal?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Congl-y-wal and the rest of Gwynedd. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are there extra charges for Congl-y-wal?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Toilet chip repair in Congl-y-wal, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, across cisterns & lids, toilet pans and pedestals.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in Congl-y-wal
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.

- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
