Toilet Chip Repair for Llandinam homes

Toilet chip repair at your home in Llandinam
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Questions to ask before booking

- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repair or replace in Llandinam?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlord and trade work in Llandinam
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.

- Make sure the area is dry
