Toilet chip repair in Mountain Hare without replacing anything
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our technicians work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Mountain Hare
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Mountain Hare. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Mountain Hare
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you cover the whole of Merthyr Tydfil?
Everywhere in the UK, Mountain Hare included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
