Trusted toilet chip repair in Llanfair-ar-y-bryn

Toilet chip repair in Llanfair-ar-y-bryn, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Llanfair-ar-y-bryn

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

DIY kit or professional repair?
