How we handle toilet chip repair in Onllwyn

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Our technicians work on cisterns & lids, pedestals and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Onllwyn: your questions answered

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you come to Onllwyn?

We do. Technicians travel to Onllwyn from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow one to two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice

Repairing versus replacing in Onllwyn

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Onllwyn. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our pricing.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Common problems we fix in Onllwyn

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected
