About our toilet chip repair in Gwernyfed

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, in vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take an hour or two. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. 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.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Gwernyfed. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
