What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cisterns & lids
  • Porcelain
  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Toilet pans

About our toilet chip repair in Cwmdu

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Swansea. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Cwmdu questions

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Cwmdu. Prices don’t change with location.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Cwmdu

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
