About our toilet chip repair in Merthyr Mawr

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

FAQs for Merthyr Mawr

Are there extra charges for Merthyr Mawr?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you cover the whole of Bridgend?

The entire UK, including all of Bridgend. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
