What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job without visiting.
About our toilet chip repair in Gwern
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can usually put it right, on porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in Gwern
Replacing a toilet needs 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Gwern questions
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Gwern?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Gwern and the rest of Powys. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Gwern?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
