Toilet chip repair in Pen-y-fai without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Pen-y-fai and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole toilet
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Pen-y-fai, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes one to two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Pen-y-fai, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When to call us in Pen-y-fai
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
Comparing quotes
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
