When we would advise against a repair

- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Toilet chip repair in Gellifelen without replacing anything
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, in porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals.
Peace of mind is built in: 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.

Gellifelen is about 3 miles east of Ebbw Vale, in Monmouthshire.

Gellifelen is one of 115 towns and villages in Monmouthshire where we work. Our jobs stretch from Gellifelen to Birmingham (70 miles away).
Our visits in NP7 are booked in the same way as anywhere else.

What affects the price in Gellifelen
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes an hour or two, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
Common problems we fix in Gellifelen
Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlord and trade work in Gellifelen

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gellifelen use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
