Toilet chip repair in Cwmifor without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Cwmifor questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover the entire of Carmarthenshire?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Cwmifor.

- A crack that leaks water
