About our toilet chip repair in Pembrey
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’s what we find. Our technicians work on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
