Toilet chip repair in Lisvane without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We work on cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lisvane and across Cardiff. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repair or replace in Lisvane?
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Lisvane questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Are there extra charges for Lisvane?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you come to Lisvane?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Lisvane from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
