About our toilet chip repair in Pen-y-cae
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bridgend. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pen-y-cae

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What affects the price in Pen-y-cae
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Pen-y-cae. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
