Toilet chip repair in Galon Uchaf, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, on toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repairing versus replacing in Galon Uchaf

A new toilet means 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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the entire UK

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole toilet

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we are called out for in Galon Uchaf

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
