Toilet chip repair in Llysfaen, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We’re often asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, across toilet pans, pedestals and vitreous china.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Conwy. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Llysfaen questions
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you come to Llysfaen?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Llysfaen from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llysfaen as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire toilet
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Llysfaen. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
