Toilet & ceramic chip repair in Gledrid, Wrexham
Toilet chip repair in and around Gledrid: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Toilet chip repair in Gledrid without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, 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. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?
A new 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Prices and what affects them

- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One picture of the whole toilet
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most customers in Gledrid get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
