Questions from Gwibnant
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Toilet chip repair in Gwibnant without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Gwibnant and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Gwibnant. The price depends on:

Repairing versus replacing in Gwibnant
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
