How we handle toilet chip repair in Pen-Llyn

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, we can typically put it right, on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Pen-Llyn: your questions answered

Do you cover the entire of Ceredigion?

We cover the entire UK, including Pen-Llyn and the rest of Ceredigion. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Landlord and trade work in Pen-Llyn

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pen-Llyn use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one 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

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pen-Llyn. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace in Pen-Llyn?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
